Monday, February 28, 2011 | Women's Basketball
University of Florida head coach Amanda Butler addressed the media Monday morning as part of the Gators' All-Sports Media Day.
The Florida women's basketball team earned the No. 8 seed in the Southeastern Conference Tournament held at Bridgestone Arena in Nashville. The Gators (17-13, 7-9 SEC) will play Arkansas (18-10, 6-10), the No. 9 seed, in the first round of the 12-team, four-day event on Thu., March 3 beginning at 1 p.m. ET (Noon CT).
Florida and Arkansas squared off in the SEC season-opener on January 2 when the Gators upset the then-22nd-ranked Razorbacks, 64-53, and handed them their first loss of the year.
Last week the Gators ended the regular-season with two big wins, topping Vanderbilt in Nashville for the first time since 2004 and upsetting No. 22 Georgia on Sunday.
