Maybe in a junior or senior middle, but > not in a pin hitter who's a freshman.” > Four Gators – Holston, Mann (.588), Antwi (.444) and Recek (.316) – hit .300 > or better. As a team, UF hit .366, the 15th time in 18 matches this season > Florida has topped the .300 mark. > The Gators also were impressive defensively, holding the Bulldogs to an .032 > mark, the 14th time this year UF has held an opponent below .200. > Redshirt junior libero Taylor Unroe led the way with a match-high 14 digs, > and senior setter Taylor Brauneis added 10 digs to go with a match-high 43 > assists for her fourth double-double of the season. > Georgia's leading scorer was senior outside hitter Brittany Northcutt with > seven kills. > “It was good serving, good defense, good setting – just good effort across > the board, and we all played well together,” Antwi said. “It was really two > big wins this weekend against two really good teams, so that will help us for > the rest of the season.” > > -- > -- > GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! > 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions > 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions > 2008 National Football Champions | > Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), > Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us > --- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "GatorNews" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to gatornews+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/groups/opt_out. -- -- GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "GatorTalk" group.
