  "account": "Gainesville, Fla. (AP) — In a resounding victory, No. 1 Florida defeated Merrimack 83-54 on Friday night. Quarterback Alex Condon contributed 16 points, while Thomas Haugh contributed 15 points. Rueben Chinyelu and Alex Lloyd each scored double figures for the Gators. Lloyd made his first career start. Florida, a 37.5-point favorite, dominated the game on both ends of the floor. The Gators outrebounded Merrimack by 22 and outscored them 36-16 in the paint. The team played without point guard Boogie Fland, who missed the game due to a sore right shoulder. Lloyd, a sophomore from Miami, hit 4 of 7 shots and added two rebounds, two steals, and two assists. The Warriors, led by AJ Lesburt Jr. with 16 points, including 12 from beyond the three-point line, finished the game with 16 points. Merrimack will host Boston University on Wednesday, while Florida will open the Players Era Festival against Notre Dame on Tuesday in Las Vegas.",
