Despite the defeat, Florida had strong showings from Zyon Pullin, who scored 18 points along with eight assists, and Riley Kugel, who scored 12 points along with five rebounds. Kugel didn’t help Florida’s cause all that much against the Wildcats last Wednesday but the same can’t be said for this game.
