GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Goals from a trio of Gators gave Florida a 3-0 win over Kennesaw State on a damp Thursday evening at the Donald R. Dizney Stadium.
Florida outshot the Owls 21-0 Thursday. It was the eighth time in the program’s 30 seasons an opponent recorded no shots, with the last coming just over a year ago in the 1-0 win at UNC-Charlotte (Sept. 7, 2023).

Florida started the scoring in the 11th minute. Freshman Norah Abbott’s square ball across the top of the box was one-touched out by Madison Jones to an open right side of the box. Sophomore Delaney Tellex took the space and hit a right-footed shot from just outside the six-yard box. Her shot hit the crossbar and kicked in for her second goal of the season.
