O’Connell Center The women’s basketball team used a balanced scoring February 10 (Thursday) attack in extending its season-high win streak to five defeating Kentucky 76-56 in South Carolina at Georgia* 7 p.m. front of 2,063 fans at the Stephen C. O’Connell Center. The current streak is the Tennessee at LSU* (ESPN2) 7 p.m. longest for the Gators since a six-game win streak was broken on January 3, 2002. Alabama at Arkansas* 8 p.m. Florida improves to 16-5 overall and 6-2 in the Southeastern Conference. Bernice Mosby led the Gators with 13 points and nine rebounds off the Florida at Kentucky* (UK-TV) 8 p.m. bench, which outscored Kentucky’s bench 40-4. Senior All-American Vanessa Auburn at Vanderbilt* 8 p.m. Hayden added 11 points, eight rebounds and seven blocks, playing just 19 minutes after UF raced out to a significant lead early and never looked back en route to the win. Mosby scored all of her points in the second half after being shut out in the February 13 (Sunday) first period thanks to a swarming Kentucky defense and some unlucky bounces Arkansas vs. Ga. Tech (RSN) 1 p.m. around the rim. LSU at South Carolina* 1 p.m. SeSe Helm scored a career-high 27 points while Sara Potts tallied 18 points Vanderbilt at Tennessee* (ESPN2) 2 p.m. and seven rebounds in the loss for the Wildcats (9-13, 1-8 SEC). Both teams sputtered out of the locker room, playing to a 6-6 stalemate in the Georgia vs. Clemson (RSN) 2 p.m. opening moments with Florida’s scoring coming mainly from Brittany Davis who Kentucky at Auburn* 3 p.m. drilled two free throws and scored on a driving lay-up courtesy of a brilliant pass Mississippi State at Florida* 3 p.m. from Hayden out of the high post. Alabama at Ole Miss* 3 p.m. It was all Florida from that point on as the Gators went on a 24-3 scoring run which launched them to 41-20 halftime lead. A pair of Tara Taylor three-pointers and a leading to a Tashia Morehead lay-up highlighted the scoring spree. The February 17 (Thursday) scoring run lasted over 10 minutes and saw six Gators add their name to the South Carolina at Tennessee* (CSS) 7 p.m. scoring column. The Gators held the Wildcats to just 25.8 percent (8-31) shooting in the first Kentucky at LSU* (COX) 8 p.m. half while they enjoyed a 45.9 percent (17-37) shooting half as well as a solid 4-10 Ole Miss at Mississippi State* 8 p.m. performance from behind the arc. Taylor led all scorers in the first half with 10 Arkansas at Vanderbilt* 8 p.m. points while Davis added six to a balanced scoring attack. Auburn at Alabama* (CSS) 9 p.m. After Florida started the scoring in the second half with four straight free throws, two a piece from Morehead and Hayden, Kentucky went on a 13-0 scoring run which finally ended when Mosby drilled a three-pointer for the Gators a little February 20 (Sunday) over five minutes into the half. Helm tallied 11 of the 13 points with a combination Alabama at South Carolina* 2 p.m. of post moves and mid-range jumpers. The comeback attempt was snuffed out in large part due to Hayden’s Tennessee at Arkansas* 3 p.m. reemergence as a scoring threat in the second half after scoring only four points in LSU at Auburn* 3 p.m. the first half, finding herself double and triple teamed for much of the opening Vanderbilt at Florida* 3 p.m. period. Mosby used her three-pointer, which stalled the Kentucky scoring run, to lift Mississippi State at Kentucky* (RSN) 3 p.m. her to 13 points for the half and game. For the game Florida shot 45.2 percent (28-62) from the field to Kentucky’s Georgia at Ole Miss* 3 p.m. 30.9 percent (21-68). The Gators also held Kentucky to just three assists for the Times are EASTERN game while they dished 12.
