Florida leads entire way in beating No. 22 Arkansas

GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Kiara Smith scored 26 points and Lavender Briggs added 20 as Florida upset No. 22-ranked Arkansas holding off the Razorbacks late for an 83-80 win on Sunday.

Florida had the ball at their end of the floor clinging to an 83-80 lead with 1.5 seconds left. Arkansas' Chelsea Dungee stole the inbounds pass and dribbled across the timeline for a desperation heave, which bounced off the backboard to end the game.

Florida (15-12, 6-8 SEC), which never trailed, built a 10-0 lead, extended it to 19-5 and wrapped up the first quarter ahead 26-16.
