GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Casey Prather scored 23 points, 15 in the second half, and No. 10 Florida beat Florida Southern 110-88 in an exhibition game Friday night.

Patric Young added 19 points, and highly touted freshman Kasey Hill chipped in 17 for the Gators, who had just nine players available — only seven on scholarship — and finished with seven scoring in double figures.

Will Yeguete had 12 points, while Rutgers transfer Eli Carter, DeVon Walker and walk-on Jacob Kurtz finished with 11 each.

Florida was without three suspended players: Scottie Wilbekin, Dorian Finney-Smith and Damontre Harris. They also were without guard Michael Frazier II, who is out indefinitely with mononucleosis.

Kevin Capers led the Division II Mocs with 20 points while Dominic Lane added 19.
