After losing in the second round of the NCAA Tournament, the Gators didn’t have to say goodbye.
The UF women’s tennis team advanced to the NCAA Tournament final with a 4-0 win over UCLA on Monday.
After No. 3 Florida walloped Kentucky in the weekend’s series finale to capture a share of the Southeastern Conference crown, coach Kevin O’Sullivan could finally breathe easy, at least for a little while anyways.
Kelsey Bruder took a first pitch off her right thigh and had a simple, two-word message for UCLA pitcher Destiny Rodino.
Florida's women's tennis team has made difficult matches look easy
There was a uniqueness about the way it ended.
UCLA's B.B. Bates hit an opposite-field blast to left field in the first inning Saturday, shoving UF freshman Hannah Rogers into an early 2-0 hole.
For the first time in Florida's lacrosse season, the 27 smiles that are usually so easy to spot were altogether absent on Saturday at Dizney Stadium.
After completing its third round just after dawn, the Florida women's golf team capped its season with a top 10 finish at the NCAA Championships.
For the second time in three home games, No. 6 Florida was walloped at McKethan Stadium. But unlike Tuesday's relatively meaningless loss to Jacksonville, Friday night's blowout was a tad more significant.
Gators shortstop Nolan Fontana just smiled, practically speechless. Starter Brian Johnson chuckled and said, "I've never seen that before in my life."
The No. 19 Florida women's golf team started Thursday's second round in fifth place, and the Gators had moved into second when their tee times began at 12:30 p.m. But on a day where a 4-over round was tops, UF did its best to hang tough in windy conditions.
The UF men's tennis team watched its season come to an end on Thursday.
A year ago, Cheyenne Coyle, Kasey Fagan and Hannah Rogers were rivals.
