GAINESVILLE, Fla. – The nationally-ranked University of Florida’s volleyball team proved its success both on and off the court as eight student-athletes were named to the SEC Fall Academic Honor Roll, as the conference announced Thursday.
Between volleyball, cross country, football and soccer, Florida had an astounding 113 student-athletes named to the Fall SEC Academic Honor Roll.
On the court, the Gators finished 25-6 and 15-3 in the SEC en route to the program’s 29th Regional Semifinal appearance and the team’s 25th SEC Championship. Three Gators earned All-SEC honors, while two players earned AVCA All-American status.
