Gators dismantle Valdosta State 84-38 in exhibition

Twenty minutes of basketball, 23 three-point attempts and zero points.

This was the stat line when the halftime buzzer sounded in Florida’s women’s basketball exhibition against Valdosta State.

The Gators eventually defeated the Blazers 84-38 in the O’Connell Center on Wednesday, six days before their season tips off against Grambling State.

Florida finished the first half up 28-15, but it felt like the Gators were only winning because of their size. Forwards Emer Nichols and Zada Williams got anything they wanted in the paint, combining for 14 of those 28 points. UF took advantage of the severe size discrepancy that VSU had to deal with.
