Florida Places 80 on SEC First-Year Academic Honor Roll

GAINESVILLE, Fla. – The University of Florida saw 80 student-athletes named to the 2022-23 Southeastern Conference First-Year Academic Honor Roll by league commissioner Greg Sankey. Grades from the 2022-23 academic year determine the 2022 SEC First-Year Academic Honor Roll.

Today’s announcement sets Florida’s record at 402 for total of student-athletes named to a 2022-23 SEC Academic Honor Roll to 402. The previous record of 378 was set in 2020-21 and equaled last season. Florida placed 322 on SEC Academic Honor Rolls (113 on fall list; 72 winter, 137 on spring) and 80 on the First-Year Honor Roll.

Two SEC Freshman of the Year – Kayla DiCello (gymnastics) and Zoe Dixon (swimming) – earned spots on the SEC First-Year Academic Honor Roll. They are among 12 Gators who earned both SEC First-Year Academic Honor Roll status and 2023 All-America accolades.
