SF Basketball: Saints Start Strong, Look to Rebound Against Hillsborough

February 13, 2025

Eastern Florida State College came to Gainesville and left with two victories, overpowering Santa Fe College in both men’s and women’s basketball matches.

The men's game started competitively, but by the second half, Eastern Florida turned up the pressure, outpacing and outscoring the Saints on their way to a decisive 92-56 win. The visitors found their rhythm after halftime, while SF struggled to keep up.

The women’s game was a much closer affair. SF held strong for three quarters, keeping pace with Eastern Florida in a slow, low-scoring contest. But as the game wore on, the visiting team pulled ahead, eventually sealing a 51-43 win.

The Saints now turn their attention to their next challenge. Both teams will hit the road to face Hillsborough Community College on Saturday.
