In the eyes of Gulf Coast women’s basketball coach, Tuesday night’s win over Tallahassee proved one thing: Athleticism doesn’t always mean a victory.

Gulf Coast showed Tuesday that basketball talent is worth more than athletic talent, and how it’s easy to overcome.

“I think staying composed and executing in the second half,” Scovel said.
