Lady Vols basketball overcame a slow start on the road to notch another crucial win in SEC play.
No. 13 Tennessee scored 24 points off 21 Florida turnovers, and it needed every one in an 86-78 win at Stephen C. O'Connell Center on Sunday. The Lady Vols (21-6, 8-6 SEC) were led by 18 points from Talaysia Cooper, who added five rebounds and two steals. Zee Spearman was critical in the win, adding 16 points, and Samara Spencer logged a double-double (11 points, 11 rebounds).
The Gators (14-14, 5-9) led by 11 points in the first half, but they couldn't sustain the momentum against Tennessee's full-court pressure. This is the second season in a row that Lady Vols coach Kim Caldwell beat Florida. Caldwell's Marshall squad beat the Gators last season.
