In college basketball, one week is a long time.

Florida’s women’s basketball team dropped a heartbreaker to Georgia by a score of 49-43 despite coming off of its biggest win of the year last week against Kentucky. It was Florida’s second-lowest scoring total on the season on Saturday at the O’Connell Center. Foul trouble, lack of shooting and turnovers did the Gators in.

Three things above all else cost UF in this one: turnovers, poor scoring efforts from guards Lavender Briggs and Kiara Smith and foul trouble for forward Zada Williams.
