The USTA/ITA Southeast Regional Tournament at the Ring Tennis Complex in Gainesville ended Monday after the singles and doubles finals.
For the second straight tournament, No. 18 Florida sprung to life in round two after burying itself beneath the competition in round one.
Two Gators advanced to their respective finals draws taking place today after a weekend of play at the Ring Tennis Complex.
On a 7544-yard golf course, the Gators found themselves starting off on the wrong foot.
It may not have been ideal, but in Florida cross country coach Paul Spangler’s eyes, there was a silver lining surrounding the Gators’ performance on the terrain this weekend.
With another weekend doubleheader rapidly approaching, Florida’s men’s and women’s cross country teams will once again be legging it out on two different fronts.
For the second consecutive week, both the UF men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams will be on the road competing in a dual-competition.
JC Deacon walked up to the press conference lectern and triumphantly delivered his opening statement on Monday.
As lonesome of an activity as running may be, competitive cross country is anything but that.
After the No. 5 Gators women’s swimming team routed the Vanderbilt Commodores with a 193-69 victory on Thursday, the team traveled to Minneapolis, Minnesota to meet with the UF men’s squad to take on No. 9 Minnesota on Saturday for a dual-competition.
Another one bites the dust.
On Thursday night, the Florida women's swimming team, without its divers, kicked of its first Southeastern Conference meet of the year in Nashville, taking on the Vanderbilt Commodores.
After both the UF men and women’s swimming and diving teams captured their sixth-straight All Florida Invitational titles on Sept. 20 in Gainesville, the teams will be tested with a pair of tough road meets against Minnesota and Vanderbilt.
Progress over perfection.
When asked what his team needed to improve on last week, men’s golf coach JC Deacon said, "It’s going to sound crazy … but it’s nothing.
For most first-year student athletes, being new means starting at the bottom.
Divide and conquer. At least that was the intention.
Finishing in second place at home is nothing to celebrate, but the UF men’s cross country team is determined to take something positive from the loss.
After breezing through the Fall’s first two tournaments with two top-five finishes, the women’s golf team will face their biggest challenge yet at the Windy City Classic on Monday.
UF’s biggest problem wasn’t putting, chipping or driving at the Golf Club of Tennessee in Kingston Springs over the weekend.
