UF women’s track claims SEC triple crown; men finish third at SEC Outdoors

The Florida women’s track and field team won the SEC Outdoor championship with 107 points, completing a rare triple crown by combining that title with earlier indoor and cross country crowns — their first such sweep since the 1996–97 season. Three individual event titles powered the women’s victory, which was the program’s eighth outdoor team championship in history. The men’s squad also had a strong showing, placing third with 78 points — their best SEC Outdoor finish since 2019 — led by a gold medal in the long jump from Masikane.
