For the 12th consecutive year the Florida Gators athletic program was awarded All-Sports Award presented by GateHouse Media. Florida has won the overall award in 25 of the last 26 years.
It wasn’t a clean sweep as it has been several times during the Gators’ run of dominance, but the close race turned into a rout when the Gators won three SEC titles (baseball, softball and track & field) last weekend, giving Florida six league titles this year.
“The level of competition across Southeastern Conference sports is so challenging, with many league teams contending for national titles. To win the SEC All-Sports trophy is a credit to the efforts of our coaches and the Gator athletes,” Athletic Director Scott Stricklin said.
This is the 28th time that Florida has won the SEC Overall All-Sports title and the 21st time the men have won the award.
Georgia, which came in second overall, won the women’s title this year by a margin of .0051 edging out the Gator women.
Florida has won 240 league titles to date and its 59 league titles in the last 10 years is the most of any team in the SEC.
