TALLAHASSEE – Makayla Timpson led Florida State with 27 points Thursday as the Seminoles beat Jacksonville, 97-74 at the Donald L. Tucker Center. FSU wrapped up its non-conference portion of the schedule and improved to 11-2 as the Dolphins fell to 6-5.
Timpson recorded her seventh double-double of the season, leading FSU with 27 points, 13 rebounds and a career-high 8 blocks. She is second in Florida State history with 38 double-doubles - three shy of the school record – and her eight blocks tied head coach Brooke Wyckoff's total from 1997 for second-most in a game in program history. O'Mariah Gordon added 19 points and a career-high 10 assists, securing the first double-double of her career.
Including Timpson and Gordon, five Seminoles scored 10 or more points for the fourth time this season.
Tied at 31 with 5:57 remaining in the second quarter, Florida State ended the half on a 22-2 run and led 53-33 at the break. The Seminoles extended its lead a game-high 29 points early in the fourth quarter before the Dolphins rattled off 22 points in the final period.
Florida State will be off through the new year, playing its next game January 2 at Virginia Tech.
