Stars for the Gators
The Gators started the season with a solid record in non-conference play, with a few players recording strong numbers over the span.
Sophomore guard Lavender Briggs continues to post stellar numbers for the Gators, leading the team with 17.8 points per game. She scored a season-high 23 points in the Gators’ first SEC game against South Carolina and has scored 15 points or more in seven consecutive games.
Senior guard Kiara Smith is a strong contributor as well, with her 15.0 points per game being the only other double-digit average aside from Briggs. Additionally, Smith averages 3.7 assists per game and 2.3 steals per game, both team highs.
