Men's Basketball Dismantles Florida Gateway, 100-47

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Santa Fe College Men's Basketball improved to 6-1 on the season with a lopsided victory over visiting Florida Gateway, 100-47.

It was the third time this season the Saints' offense eclipsed 100 points, and the Timberwolves had no answer for a dialed in Santa Fe squad.

First Half – SF 53, FGC 26

Trailing 6-3 in the early going, SF went on a 9-0 run. Kordell Brown had four points during the stretch of play to help the Saints to the lead.

SF would never relinquish it the rest of the way. A 12-0 run in the middle of the half put SF ahead 32-14, and then another spurt of 11 unanswered points opened the floodgates and led to a sizeable 27 point advantage at the break. Bradley Douglas had 13 first-half points to spearhead the offense.

Second Half – SF 100, FGC 47

The second half was a runaway in front of the home crowd, and the Saints defense continued to be impressive to lead to runouts and finishes on the other end.

The final score represented SF's largest lead of the game, which was capped off by a corner three-pointer from Giovanni Baerga-Uselis.
