Florida: Gators Must Wait on Backcourt Help



Gators Must Wait on Backcourt Help: Florida thought recruit Derwin Kitchen would help the Gators forget the loss of guards Matt Walsh and Anthony Roberson. But Kitchen won’t be able to join the team this fall because he does not have the mandatory academic accomplishment to earn a high school diploma in Florida. And without a diploma, the school won’t accept Kitchen as a student. A talented guard, Kitchen plans to retake the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test and could also take the SAT or ACT tests until he earns a high enough score. The current plan is for Kitchen to enroll at the school in the spring, but he probably will not contribute to the team this season. [8/24/05]
