Vanderbilt finally gets quality win, tops Florida

Damian Jones (30) goes up for a shot against Florida in a 60-59 win on January 26, 2016 in Memorial Gymnasium

Vanderbilt center Damian Jones hit four of the first five field goals for the Commodores, including a massive dunk and a nifty jump-hook off the glass, sparking the Vanderbilt offense.

“I thought Damian played through contact,” coach Kevin Stallings said. “It was a physical game. You have to play through contact in a game like this and I thought Damian did that exceptionally well.”

The Gators had no answer defensively for Jones with Egbunu on the bench, as he racked up 13 points in the first half on 5 of 8 shooting.
