Special report on the Florida Gators soccer team:
FORT MYERS, Fla. – Florida soccer battled not only the Florida Gulf Coast Eagles, but also the weather to take a 1-0 win Sunday afternoon at Pickering Field.
Just after the opening five minutes of play, lightning forced the teams from the field for nearly an hour and half. Although the lightning ended, rain showers started soon after the team returned to play and continued on and off throughout the remainder of the match.
Florida scored the match’s only goal in the 54th minute in the midst of one of those rain showers.
