UF Celebrates 150th Anniversary in 2003
The University of Florida celebrates its sesquicentennial
in 2003. The University can trace its beginnings to Jan. 6,
1853 when Gov. Thomas Brown signed the bill that provided
financial support for the East Florida Seminary in Ocala.
The bill marked the beginning of public funding for higher
education in Florida. The seminary moved to Gainesville in 1866. Florida created six new state-supported schools.
Among them was Florida's first land-grant institution, the Florida Agricultural College, incorporated in 1870 and
opened in 1884 at Lake City. Improvements in the college's campus and curriculum continued, and in 1903 the college
became the University of Florida.
The Buckman Act of 1905 consolidated the state's system of higher education. The act provided for three colleges,
one of which was the University of Florida at Gainesville (an all-male college). Classes began on Sept. 26,
1906, in Thomas Hall with 102 students. In 1909, the first of UF's existing colleges - Law, Arts & Sciences,
Agriculture, and Engineering - were organized. Today, UF has 17 colleges and more than 100 research, service and
education centers, bureaus and institutes. UF's enrollment of 47,373 for the 2002-03 academic year ranks it
among the nation's top five.

There Is No Time Like The Present
The 2003 Florida Softball team has a whole new look.
Although Karen Johns' squad only lost four players
from last season, there are seven new faces. These new
faces, the 14 returning players, Coach Johns and new
assistant coaches Dave Majeski and Heather Compton -
Butler bring a lot of talent, potential and enthusiasm to
the Florida softball stadium. They all realize that now is
their time and they have all ready been working hard this
fall to prepare themselves for their goal of reaching the
College World Series.
The 2003 Florida softball team has depth, offense,
defense and pitching. It is truly a complete package.
Every player is skilled at multiple positions, there are at
least two backups for every starter and more than enough
strong bats and quick feet to fill the line up. There is no
doubt about it ... Florida softball is going to be exciting to
watch.
Seniors Prissie Walden, Jennifer Brown, Jackie
Marchetta, Andrea Zimbardi and Jennifer Mossadeghi
The Seniors
The senior class is looking to go out with a bang and their
goal is a SEC Championship and a trip to the College
World Series. Jackie Marchetta (Boynton Beach, Fla.)
was Florida's leading hitter last season and earned second-team
All-SEC honors at short stop despite missing
several games late in the season with a broken wrist. Her
resiliency and work ethic are just two examples of her
quiet, understated qualities that make her a true leader.
“Jackie had a very consistent fall on defense and was
what she had been lacking in her previous two years at
UF,” Johns said. “She has really taken her game seriously
and will be our infield leader.”
Jennifer Mossadeghi (Jupiter, Fla.) is a three-year
starter at third base and will be there again this season.
She has a strong bat and is a steady defensive
player that has a calming quality on
the field.
“Jennifer is a spectacular third baseman,”
said Johns. “She has made tremendous
strides in the weight room and the
results have made her game better than
ever. I am looking forward to her enjoying
her senior year.”
Andrea Zimbardi (Green, Ohio) is a
fifth-year player who has gone through a
lot of adversity just to be a part of the
team. Zimbardi suffered two knee injuries
in 2001 and worked hard to come back
and be Florida's top returning catcher this
season. Her determination helps pull the
team through rough spots.
“Andrea is one of the most dedicated athletes that I
have had the pleasure to coach,” Johns said. “She will
serve a valuable role in running the show behind the plate
and serving as a bench leader when she is not catching.
Andrea expects to win and that is half the battle.”
Prissie Walden (Jacksonville, Fla.) was limited this
fall due to an ankle injury, but should be full strength
again this spring. Walden has seen starting time at both
first and second base and will be at ease in either of these
positions.
“Prissie is another one of our seniors that has made a
true commitment to her off season workouts and that will
pay off for us,” Johns said. “Her experience will help our
club. When she is not starting, her ability to come off the
bench and anchor our infield on defense will hopefully
earn her the championship ring she deserves.”
Jennifer Brown (Orlando, Fla.) is undoubtedly the
most spirited member of the Florida squad. A two-time
NFCA Academic All-American and GTE Academic All-
District last season, Brown's role the last four season has
been as a pinch runner, but she has worked hard on her
hitting and fielding this summer and could see some more
time in the outfield in the spring.
“Jennifer’s senior leadership will be invaluable to our
team’s success this year,” Johns said. “She is the ultimate
team player. Her speed and improved offensive skills will
help her contribute a great deal on the field.”
The Juniors
Jenilee Garner (Gainesville, Fla.) has literally been all
over the field in her first two seasons at Florida, but this
season she should be able to settle in to a spot at the top
of the Gator lineup and in centerfield. Her versatility has
always been an asset to the team and will continue to be
if needed, but her bat, quick feet and calmness in the outfield
are what she will be called on to use this year.
“Jenilee has always had the physical attributes to play
this game,” Johns said. “This fall I have noticed her make
tremendous strides in her appraoch and preparation. Her
Juniors Mylin Prieto, Jenny Gladding, Amanda Moore, Stacy Rosen,
Jenilee Garner and Andrea Magura
We are involved in a life that passes understanding; our highest business is our daily life. - John Cage
maturity and growth will make her one of the better players
in the SEC.”
Amanda Moore (Tuscaloosa, Ala.) has been the
player the team has leaned on the most in her first two
seasons. As Florida's strongest pitcher, she was forced to
grow up and adjust to the college game fast when she first
arrived at Florida. Now with some more additions to the
pitching staff, Moore can finesse her pitches. She worked
hard all summer and returned in the best shape of her
career. With the help of Compton-Butler, her sneaky
change up has become even more dangerous and elusive
to opponent batters.
“Amanda has made an incredible commitment to
improve her physical game,” Johns said. “She is in the
best shape of her life and I am very pleased with her
progress. Heather (Compton-Butler) has really elevated
her pitching.”
Mylin Prieto (Cooper City, Fla.) is a small player
whose bat packs a lot of punch and is developing into one
of Florida's strongest hitters. She had surgery this summer
and was not able to throw this fall because of her
rehabilitation. She could see time at second in the spring,
but would also be a powerful designated player.
“Mylin made a strong commitment to her off season
workouts and it is paying off,” Johns said. “She has truly
matured on and off the field and I see her being a leader
for this team. She is an excellent role model for the
younger players.”
She may look small, sweet and unintimidating, but
when you see her on the field Stacy Rosen (Ft.
Lauderdale, Fla.) is just the opposite. She has dangerous
speed around the bases, will lay out to catch any ball in
the outfield and has a strong arm.
“Stacy is the unsung hero for our club,” Johns said.
“She will play a very big role in left field for us and has
managed her role on offense like a pro. Her consistency is
something I depend on for our team.”
Andrea Magura (Gainesville, Fla.) transferred from
Santa Fe Community College to join the Gators. She will
play right field, adds more speed to the team and can

drive the ball in key situations.
“Andrea is a model student-athlete,” Johns said. “I
really had her learning so many new things this fall and
she handled it well. With her athletic ability and her
maturity, she will be a valuable role player for us this
year.”
Jenny Gladding (Palm City, Fla.) comes to Florida
from Arizona where she was the No. 2 pitcher for the 2001
National Champion and 2002 Runner-up Wildcats. Not
only is Gladding a talented pitcher with a wide repertoire
of pitches, she is also a strong left-handed batter.
“Jenny has not only boosted our pitching staff, but her
genuine love for family and team has been a blessing,”
Johns said.
Sophomores Brittani Houghton, Amanda Knowles,
Ashlie Goble, Mandy Schuerman and Nikki Baldwin.
The Sophomores
2002 SEC Co-Freshman of the Year Mandy Schuerman
(Riverview, Fla.) returns this season and has spent the fall
working on her consistency, both from the mound and at
the plate. A strong player with a lot of potential and natural
talent, Schuerman is capable of doing even more for
her team than she did last season.
“Mandy is coming into her own and learning how to
work harder mentally, not just physically,” Johns said.
“She is a true competitor and is learning how to take her
game to a championship level. She will be a big part of
our offensive and defensive schemes.”
Nikki Baldwin (Homestead, Fla.) adds another
strong arm in the outfield and is also very quick around
the bases. When she is not starting in the field, Gator fans
will be sure to see her filling in running bases.
“Nikki gained valuable experience as a freshman last
year,” Johns said. “Her steady improvement on offense
and defense throughout the fall will help our club this
spring.”
Brittani Houghton (Ft. Myers, Fla.) spent most of
the fall in the dugout due to injury, but will most likely
see time in the outfield this season. She is also fast and
can help out in pinch running situations.
“Brittani is still overcoming a string of injuries that
began her senior year in high school,” Johns said. “It will
take a lot of perserverance and hard work for her to reach
her potential. Her speed and powerful bat will help us
when she heals.”
Amanda Knowles (Cooper City, Fla.) is another
strong pitcher with more potential than Gator softball
fans were able to see last season. She battled an injury to
her index finger last season that affected some of her
grips. She has worked through that and will be ready to
go this spring. She throws a variety of pitches and throws
hard.
“Amanda had a tough fall and some athletes struggle
with adversity,” Johns said. “But her strong character
and pride triggered her to work and get in the best shape
of her life and she will reap the benefits this spring.”
Ashlie Goble (Pine, Colo.) did not see much time
last season due to a nagging knee injury, but should be
100 percent in the spring. She is a catcher who demands
attention behind the plate, has a strong arm and works
well with all the pitchers.
“Ashlie has made great strides in the weight room
recovering from her knee injury,” Johns said. “She is a
tough, hard-nosed player and that element rubs off on
her teammates.”
Freshmen Lindsay Norfleet, Mirleis Torres, Lindsey
Cameron, Laura Templeton and Kristen Butler.
The Freshmen
The five freshmen are a talented group. They all help add
depth to the infield and are great hitters. Mirelis
Torres (Tampa, Fla.) and Laura Templeton (Odessa,
Fla.) both play first base. Torres spent time in December
playing for the Puerto Rican National team in the Pan-Am
Life, we learn too late, is in the living, in the tissue of every day and hour. - Stephen Leacock
Games. Kristen Butler (Orlando, Fla.) is a catcher and
probably has the quickest and strongest arm of the three
Florida catchers. Lindsey Cameron (Palm Beach
Gardens, Fla.) and Lindsay Norfleet (Madison, Fla.)
are both very quick and can play either middle infield
position. Cameron also shared time at third base with
Mossadeghi this fall.
“Mirelis is a very young, raw talent that will play a
valuable role for us this year,” Johns said. “I like her
presence on the bench and in the clubhouse and I know
she will help us win championships. As a freshman, Laura
brings a tremendous amount of maturity to our club. He
ability to hit the long ball consistently will fill a big hole
that we had in our offense. She is a great teammate and
has earned the respect of all the upperclassmen. Kristen
is one of the most talented cathcers I have ever coached.
Her powerful arm and her ability to get on base will make
her a big part of our championship run. Lindsey is a very
talented athlete. Her agressiveness at the plate and big
hit ability will make her a big part of our offensive plans.
Lindsay is a true Florida Gator. Her outstanding athletic
ability, her versatility and her mental toughness will
make her a key part in our success.
The Schedule
The Gators will play 15 of the 48 teams that qualified for
the 2002 NCAA Tournament, including three of the eight
College World Series teams and eight teams ranked in the
2002 final USA Today/NFCA Division I Coaches Poll.
Florida plays in five tournaments, three at home and
two in Texas, one hosted by Baylor University and one
hosted by the University of Texas.
The non-tournament portion of the schedule is just as
demanding. Florida hosts 2002 NCAA teams Alabama,
Mississippi State, LSU and College World Series team
Florida State at the Florida Softball Stadium. They will
travel to Georgia, South Carolina, Auburn and Arkansas.
The highlight of the season could be a mid-April trip to
Oklahoma City, Okla., where the Gators will take on
Oklahoma and Oklahoma State at the ASA Hall of Fame
Stadium, the site of the Women's College World Series.
The Southeastern Conference Tournament moves close
to home this season as Plant City, Fla. will host the eight
teams that qualify for the tournament.
"We have put together a quality schedule for this
spring," Johns said. "It will challenge us and can only help
us improve as the season goes on. We should have great
strength of schedule which will count for a lot when the
teams are selected for the NCAA Tournament. Our ultimate
goal is always to go to the College World Series.
Everything we do whether it be workouts, team meetings
or the schedule, is an effort to help us reach that goal."
The 2003 Florida softball team has a lot to look forward
to. With another challenging schedule against some
of the nation's best teams and a talented team of their
own, Florida softball fans will see some exciting games
this spring.

The state’s oldest, largest and most comprehensive university, Florida is one
of the nation’s most academically diverse public universities. Founded in 1853,
Florida has a long history of established programs in international education,
research and service.
HISTORY
Florida's oldest university, the University of Florida
traces its beginnings to the takeover of the private
Kingsbury Academy in Ocala by the state-funded East
Florida Seminary in 1853. The seminary moved to
Gainesville following the Civil War and consolidated
with the state's land-grant Florida Agricultural College,
then in Lake City, to become the University of Florida in
1905. Classes began Sept. 26, 1906, for 102 male students.
Until 1947, UF was one of only three state universities,
along with Florida State College for Women
(now FSU) and Florida A&M.
STUDENTS
University of Florida students numbered more than
46,000 in fall 2002, coming from more than 100 countries,
all 50 states and each of Florida's 67 counties. The
ratio of men to women is about 48-52 and almost onethird
of the students are freshmen and sophomores.
About 40 percent are juniors and seniors. Almost 10,000
are expected to be graduate students, and more than
3,000 are in professional programs including dentistry,
law, medicine and veterinary medicine. More than 3,300
African-American and more than 4,400 Hispanic students
attend the university. For the 2001-02 year, UF
ranked fourth in the nation among public universities in
the number of new National Merit Scholars and second
in National Achievement Scholars in attendance. About
70 percent of entering freshmen were ranked in the top
10 percent of their high school graduating class and the
mid-range of UF's freshmen score between 1190 and
1350 on their SATs. Students also lead a rich extracurricular
life, participating in more than 500 student
organizations and attending more than 200 campus
concerts, art exhibits and theatrical productions a year.
FACULTY
A distinguished faculty of 4,000 attracted $379.5 million
in research and training grants in 2000-01. UF now
has 54 eminent scholar chairs and more than two dozen
faculty members have been selected to the National
Academies of Science and/or Engineering, the Institute
of Medicine or a counterpart in a foreign nation. UF has
been awarded three national scientific centers: the UF
Brain Institute for the study of neurological disease; the
Engineering Research Center for Particle Science; and
the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in
Tallahassee. A small sampling of other honored faculty
includes: a Nobel Prize winner, two Pulitzer Prize winners,
co-inventor of the jet engine, winners of NASA's top
award for research and winner of the Smithsonian
Institution's award for conservation.
PROGRAMS
Florida is a member of the Association of American
Universities, the prestigious higher education organization
comprised of the top 63 public and private institutions
in North America. Florida is one of the most comprehensive
universities in the country, offering more
programs on a single campus than all but a select few
other U.S. universities. A land-grant university with a
distinguished record of developing Florida agriculture
through research and extension services, Florida is
among the nation's leading research universities as categorized
by the Carnegie Commission on Higher
Education with 17 colleges and more than 100 research,
service and education centers, bureaus and institutes.
UF has prestigious multi-disciplinary institutes such at
the UF Institute on Aging and the UF Genetics Institute
and offers 100 undergraduate degree programs, more
than 200 graduate programs and 30 combined degree
programs.

Recognizing student-athletes
face unique pressures, the University
of Florida Athletic Department instituted
the Office of Student Life in 1979.
This award-winning program of personalized,
professional guidance in
numerous areas on a day-to-day basis has
become a leader in student-athlete services,
while also demonstrating UF’s commitment
to the total development of its student-athletes.
The commitment has paid some
impressive dividends. Over the past 10
years, UF has tallied 830 selections to the
Southeastern Conference Academic Honor
Roll, the best 10-year total in UF and SEC
history. In each of the past 12 years, UF
has had at least 50 student-athletes
receive conference academic accolades,
and since 1980-81, 1,146 Gator studentathletes
have been named Academic All-
SEC.
Achieving this type of success begins
early. From aiding the transition from
high school to college as a freshman, to
choosing a major as a sophomore, through
the career advisement period as a junior,
until job placement as a senior, the OSL is
dedicated to the personal growth and academic
development of the student-athlete.

(Reprinted from Florida Times-Union, August 2, 1948)
A Jacksonville lawyer 'christened' the University of Florida's football
team 41 years ago when he gave a pennant-designing firm in
Charlottesville, Va., the suggestion of "The Alligators."
"Austin Miller, who has practiced law here since shortly after his graduation
from the University of Virginia in 1910, yesterday recalled the circumstances
surrounding the choice of a name for Florida University's athletic
teams. It happened in the fall of 1907, a year after the University of
Gainesville had fielded its first team.
"Miller, a native of Gainesville, was enrolled in the University of Virginia
at the time and was visited by his father, Phillip Miller, a Gainesville merchant.
The elder Miller, who died nine years ago, then owned and operated
a combination drug store and stationery store in Gainesville, a popular rendezvous
for university students.
"While in Charlottesville the father decided to order some pennants and
banners for the University of Florida from the Michie Company, which was
engaged in the manufacture of such items. The Millers went to the firm,
where they were shown samples of pennants which featured the Yale bulldog,
the Princeton tiger and other school emblems. When the manager
asked for Florida's emblem, the Millers realized the new school had none.
"Austin Miller, said the name "Alligators' occurred to him as a suitable
emblem, both because the Michie manager said no other school had adopted
it and because the alligator was native to this state. "I had no idea it
would stick, or even be popular with the student body,' Miller said. 'We wanted
to get the Michie firm started on the pennants as quickly as possible,
though, so they would be available in time for the opening of the 1908 school
term.'
"The Michie manager complicated the christening when he told young
Miller he'd never seen an alligator and didn't believe he could design one.
The law student volunteered to find a suitable picture of a 'gator. After much
search, he said, he located a picture of one in the library of the University
of Virginia.
"The first appearance of the alligator emblem, Miller recalled was in his
father's Gainesville store in 1908. The Michie firm had supplied Millers' with
the blue banner measuring six by three feet, showing a large orange alligator,
and also with several different types of smaller banners and pennants.
Some of them showed the alligator lying down, some rampant, while others
included only the alligator's head."

Karen Johns has long been a marquee name among
Southeastern Conference schools. She came to
Florida after spending five years as an assistant at
Alabama and was a two-time All-America catcher
for South Carolina as a player, as well as gaining of
experience as a member of the U.S. National team.
These are the credentials that first attracted Florida
administrators to Johns. But, it was her character
that hooked them. The three words that have
described the Florida softball team since her arrival,
could just as well describe Johns herself: desire, dedication
and determination. Johns and the 2003
Gators have adopted the ideal that NOW is the time
to use those three words to reach their goals.
When she first arrived at Florida, Johns' first priority
was recruiting to fulfill immediate needs for the
2001 season. She hit the pavement straight from the
UF athletic directors' offices, and she quickly
acquired an in-state player and a quality hurler to
build the Gators' previously thin pitching staff. Her
second recruiting class included seven outstanding
and versatile players, five who hail from the
Sunshine State. The 2003 class is just as strong,
including a junior college transfer, a top pitcher
transferring from the University of Arizona and five
freshmen, all from Florida. Johns' recruiting efforts
show that she is committed to keeping Florida talent
in Florida and the future of UF softball is bright.
Another of Johns' early concerns was making the
transition a positive experience for the returning
players. Johns led her staff in a campaign to expose
themselves as coaches to the players. From taking
part in conditioning workouts to breakfast meetings
at the crack of dawn, the staff was committed to its
players. That commitment carries through to each
new season, as the group of players, coaches and
numerous support staff begin each campaign with
an unbelievable amount of trust and caring for one
another and an insatiable desire to succeed. Johns
has truly made Gator softball a family unit.
Though they struggled through the 2002 season,
Johns knows last season's hurdles will only make the
team stronger. The Gators finished the season with a
32-35 overall record, but pulled many positives out
of the program's first losing season. The team set a
program record for most wins against ranked opponents
with eight on the season. The tough schedule
Johns put together for her team shows her commitment
to excellence, because only by playing the
nation's best teams will the Gators become one of
them. UF also set the school record for most saves
opponent runner caught stealing. In a 15-3 win over
Tennessee, the Gators also set the school record for
most home runs in a game with four at the Lady Vols
home park. Six Gators were named to the SEC Honor
Roll, two to the All-SEC second team and Mandy
Schuerman was named SEC Co-Freshman of the Year.
In her first season with the Gators, Johns led the
team to a 37-28 record, a fifth place finish in the
SEC and their second consecutive NCAA Regional
Appearance. Three players earned All-Southeastern
Conference honors and five were named to the All-
SEC Academic team.
Based on her experience, it is not surprising that
Johns is off to a good start with her first program.
Johns was
Alabama's top
assistant during
the 2000 season,
which culminated
in a
sixthplace
finish
in the Women's
College World
Series. Also during
her tenure
there, the Tide
captured the 1998
SEC Tournament
title and made their
first NCAA Regional
appearance in 1999.
Johns' duties at Alabama
included coaching the pitchers and catchers,
recruiting, academic and strength and conditioning
liason and overall operations. Johns engineered a
remarkable picthing staff improvement. In 2000,
the staff finished with a 1.70 ERA, a 66-14 record
and recorded 19 shutouts, compared to a 2.65 ERA
and a 29-29 mark in 1997.
At South Carolina, Johns was a two-time All-
American and three-time All-South Region catcher.
She was also a Honda Award nominee, the highest
Now is the only time we own; give, toil with a will. And place no faith in tomorrow for the clock may then be still. - Anonymous

honor given in collegiate softball. She began her
coaching career as a student assistant under Joyce
Compton for the 1989 Gamecock Women's College
World Series team. She completed her undergraduate
degree in Health and Fitness in 1989 and earned
a Master's degree in education in 1991. Following her
graduate work, she spent two years as an athletic
academic counselor before returning to the coaching
ranks as an assistant for the 1994 season.
Following her standout career at USC, Johns took her
talents to the international level and led her teams
to gold medals in the International Softball
Federation World Championships and United States
Olympics Festivals.
As a U.S. National team member, her team won
medals at the 1990 and 1994 ISF World
Championships, the 1994 South Pacific Classic and
the 1995 Pan American Games. In 1989 and 1990,
she led her team to a gold medal the the U.S.
Olympic Festival. She returned to the festival in
1994 and 1995 and her team claimed the bronze
medal both times. All this time she was doubling her
playing experience with her coaching duties at South
Carolina. She did not stop playing until she joined
the Alabama staff in 1996.
From 1994 to 1996, Johns conducted clinics and private
lessons throughout South Carolina, Georgia and
Alabama. Johns is a member of the National
Fastpitch Coaches Association and the National
Baseball Coaches Association. Prior to coming to
Florida, she served as the assistant coaches' representative
to the NFCA executive board.
Johns is married to former Alabama All-
Southeastern Conference defensive back and former
West Alabama head football coach, Bobby
Johns. The couple has a 5-
year-old daughter,
Kaci Michelle.
The Johns family: Bobby, Kaci and Karen
Johns’ Coaching Philosophy
Our goal is, and always will be, to make it to
the College World Series and consistently be
among the best in the country. I believe that
takes a team family and hard work from a group
of individuals that care about each other and are
willing to make the sacrifices to win a national
championship.
I want athletes with big dreams and big
hearts; everything else can be taught. The program
and its successes are properties of the players.
It's the teaching that is the true reward and
test for me: How well I can teach players to
be better than they ever thought they could be.
I believe it is a journey. Along the
way, I want them to learn skills
the can use for the rest of their
lives and live a life they can
be proud of, and be a difference
makers for themselves and the
world around them. I want athletes
to have confidence and self-esteem,
so they can face the many challenge
that their lives will hand them ... to
do everything with strength and faith.
Where better to do that than the playing
field, where each one is tested daily?
If we are ever to enjoy life, now is the time, not tomorrow or next year ... Today should always be our most wonderful day. - Thomas Dreier

This isn't the first season Gator fans will see Assistant
Coach Dave Majeski on the sidelines for the Gators, but it
is his first full season as a Florida assistant. He served as
a volunteer assistant for the first half of last season and
as an interim assistant coach at the end of the season. He
works primarily with Florida's hitting and fielders.
Majeski's first interaction with the Florida softball team
was at the 2002 Celebrity Swing. Majeski, a fan-favorite
Gator baseball alumnus, took the first pitch he saw over
the scoreboard at the Florida Softball Stadium. Karen
Johns knew right then he could help her team. She asked
him if he would like to volunteer to help, and the rest, as
they say, is history.
Majeski is no stranger to Florida athletics. He was a fouryear
letterwinner for the Gator baseball team from 1989-
92 in the outfield. He was a member of the 1991 team that
won the Southeastern Conference Tournament and took
third in the College World Series. He was drafted in the
34th round by the Cleveland Indians after his junior year,
but chose to stay at UF for his senior season. In his senior
season, Majeski made both the All-SEC and SEC All-
Tournament teams. He was again drafted after completing
his eligibility by the Milwaukee Brewers. He finished
his career with a .322 batting average and still ranks in
the top 10 of 12 different career offensive categories.
Majeski graduated from the University of Florida in 1994
with a Bachelor of Science degree. After graduating from
The Majeski family: Dave, Meghan, Hope and Deanna
UF, Majeski was the head baseball coach and taught science
classes at Eastside High School in Gainesville, Fla.
There he led the baseball team to its best record in 12
years. In 1998, he accepted a job as the head baseball
coach and science and physical education teacher at
Santa Fe High School in Alachua, Fla. Majeski led the
baseball team to four consecutive district championships
and was named the Gainesville Sun's Coach of the Year in
1998. He also served as the director and head coach of the
North Central Florida Fall Showcase and All-Star teams
from 1998-2002. Currently, 26 of his former players are
playing college baseball.
Majeski is married to the former Deanna Cantliffe. They
have 4-year old identical twin girls, Meghan and Hope.

Forget mistakes. Forget failures. Forget everything exceot what you are going to do now and do it. Today is your lucky day. - Will Durant

When Karen Johns went looking for a pitching coach,
she needed to look no further than Florida's instate rival
to the north. With Florida State coming off a College
World Series experience and their senior ace being named
to the All-College World Series team, the time seemed
right for Heather Compton to move on to a new challenge.
That move just happened to be to Gainesville.
Compton is the perfect fit for Florida Softball. She has
a wealth of experience both as a player and as a coach.
She played for one of the nation's premier programs and
in just three years, drastically improved Florida State's
pitching staff. She works hard and shares Coach Johns'
and the team's core values of desire, dedication and
determination.
Compton has experience in nearly every level of softball.
She has been to the College World Series a total of
five times, both as a player and a coach. She has also
played internationally both with USA Softball and in professional
leagues.
Compton is a 1994 graduate of UCLA, where she was a
four-year letterwinner for the Bruins softball team. She
led the team to four College World Series appearances
and helped UCLA win national championships in 1990
and 1992. She earned first team All-America honors in
1991 and was also named to the All-College World Series
team as a pitcher. She still ranks in UCLA's top ten in five
different pitching categories
and finished her
career with a 0.52
ERA.
Following graduating
from UCLA with a
degree in political science,
Compton played for
the USA National team
that took the gold
medal in
t h e
1994
Pan-
The Butler family: Chris and Heather
American games. She went on to play internationally for
Poneke Kilbernic Softball Club in New Zealand from 1994-
96 and in 1996 played for the Brioski Junior Softball Team
in the Italian Pro League. That season she posted the best
record in the league.
After her success on the international level, Compton
had a successful season for the Ohio Pride of the Women's
Professional Softball League in 2000. She earned WPSL
Pitcher of the Week honors three times and set a league
record for striking out 17 batters in a game. She was
rewarded for her play by being named to the WPSL All-
Star team.
Compton joined the Florida State staff in 1999. In
2001, under Compton's tutelage the Seminole pitching
staff earned the NCAA ERA title with a low 0.71 team ERA.
It was the lowest team ERA in eight years. In 2002
Compton's pitchers helped lead the Seminoles to the
College World Series and defeated top-ranked UCLA in an
impressive first-round extra-inning win on the way to
Florida State's best post-season run ever. Seminole ace
Leslie Malerich was named to the All-College World Series
team.
A native of Santa Maria, Calif., Compton married Chris
Butler on January 4, 2003

The Southeastern
Conference
Setting the Standard for Excellence
This is SEC Softball
In only its sixth year of existence, SEC softball has
made a name for itself across the nation.
The Southeastern Conference qualified a league-best
seven teams for the 2002 NCAA tournament - Alabama,
Auburn, Arkansas, Georgia, LSU, Mississippi State and
South Carolina. LSU was the lone SEC team to receive a
No. 1 seed, while South Carolina was the only SEC school
to host a regional. The seven teams from the SEC tied the
PAC-10 for the most teams from one conference to make
the 2002 NCAA Tournament. The NCAA Tournament bids
for Auburn and Georgia marked the first in each school’s
history.
The SEC qualified four teams for the 2001 tournament.
LSU, Alabama, South Carolina and Florida all made an in
the tourney, while Mississippi State barely missed the
field, despite being one of only four teams with a winning
record in league play. LSU and Alabama both secured No.
1 seeds and both hosted a regional championship, marking
the first time the SEC had two member schools receive
such an honor.
Trailing only the Pac-10, the SEC qualified a thenrecord
number six teams for the 2000 NCAA Softball
Tournament. LSU, Arkansas, Mississippi State, Alabama,
Florida and SEC Tournament Champion South Carolina all
made the field of 48.
The sport came under the auspices of the Southeastern
Conference in the 1996-97 season. Since tha ttime, eight
different conference teams have made appearances in the
NCAA Championship, including three Women’s College
World Series berths - one by South Carolina in the inaugural
season, Alabama in 2000 and LSU in 2001. LSU
reached the semifinals in 2001 and finished the season
ranked third nationally. In 1999, four teams earned bids
to postseason, the second most by any conference.
Seven teams (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, LSU,
Mississippi State, South Carolina and Tennessee) have
made top 25 appearances and two teams have climbed
into the Top 10 (Alabama and LSU) of the NFCA/USA
Today Poll.
South Carolina is the flagship team of the league with
a rich history in softball dating back 27 seasons. The Lady
Gamecocks have made 10 NCAA Regional and three
Women’s College World Series appearances.
Mississippi State played softball for five seasons during
the 1980s before resuming the sport when it was
added to the SEC. Tennessee added softball in 1995-96,
one year before its inception in the SEC. Alabama,
Arkansas, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, LSU and
Ole Miss began softball programs in 1996-97 to give the
league 11 representatives (Vanderbilt does not sponsor
softball).
The 1999 season was the first in which the conference
was eligible for an automatic berth to the NCAA
Championships.
In its first six seasons, the SEC has watched its newest
sport gain competitiveness and popularity. Two different
teams have won the SEC regular season title as well as the
tournament title. South Carolina has won both once and
LSU has won both three times.
The Standard of Excellence
The Southeastern Conference, with its storied 70-year
history of athletic achievements and academic excellence,
has built perhaps the greatest tradition of intercollegiate
competition of any league in the country since its inception
in 1933.
The 2001-02 academic year was another season to
remember for the SEC as conference teams captured six
national titles and seven national runner-up finishes.
Between the years of 1990 and 2002, the SEC won 87
national team championships for an average of more
than seven per year.
Tennessee and LSU won the conference's first NCAA
titles of the year, respectively, in men's and women's
indoor track. Auburn won the women's swimming & diving
title, while Alabama won women's gymnastics. LSU
and South Carolina also won the men's and women's outdoor
track & field championships, respectively. Florida
finished third in the Sears Trophy final standings without
winning a national title.
Overall, the SEC finished in the top two in 10 of its 20
sponsored sports and in the top five in 15 of the 20 sports.
Eight SEC teams participated in football postseason bowls
with Florida finishing the highest in the polls. Six men's
and eight women's basketball teams were invited to the
NCAA Tournament with Tennessee advancing to the
Women's Final Four. Seven teams advanced to postseason
play in baseball with South Carolina finishing second in
the College World Series. With 156 teams, almost eight
per sport, advancing to NCAA postseason competition, the
SEC continued to solidify its place as the nation's premier
conference.
In addition to the six team championships, 65 SEC student-athletes
garnered individual national championships,
while 334 individuals were awarded with firstteam
All-America honors. Student-athletes around the
league continued to excel in the classroom as well with
1,353 earning recognition on the SEC Academic Honor
Roll.
On the national all-sport level, the SEC placed six
teams in the top 25 of the Sears/NACDA Director's Cup
rankings. Florida led the league with a third-place finish.
Georgia placed 8th, while LSU was 10th, South Carolina
finished 11th, Tennessee 12th and Auburn 19th to round
out the league's top 25 finishes. Nine of the SEC's 12
schools finished in the top 50 of the Sears Cup Standings.
Alabama (32), Arkansas (35) and Kentucky (36) also
made the top 50.
As every thread of gold is valuable, so is every moment of time. - John Mason
Commissioner
Mike Slive
From his early days as an athletic administrator
to his current post as commissioner, Mike Slive
has maintained an integral role in the ever-changing
world of intercollegiate athletics. He was
named the seventh commissioner of the
Southeastern Conference on July 2, 2002.
Prior to joining the SEC, Slive was the
Commissioner of Conference USA. He was named
the first-ever Commissioner of the newly-formed
league on April 24, 1995. Under his direction,
Conference USA has quickly emerged as one of the
nation's top conferences.
Presently, the 61-year-old Slive is the chair of
the first NCAA Infractions Appeals Committee and
the National Letter of Intent Appeals Committee.
He is also chair of the Board of Directors of NCAA
Football USA and is the President of the Collegiate
Commissioners Association (CCA). Last month, he
was named to the Executive Committee of the
National Association of Collegiate Directors of
Athletics (NACDA) and also serves on the Board of
Advisors of the Marquette Sports Law Institute.
This summer, Slive was named by President
Bush to the Commission of Athletic Opportunity,
that will review the workings of Title IX. He is one
of 15 panelists that consists of former and current
athletes, athletic and academic administrators
and college professors from around the nation.
Slive has an extensive administrative and
legal background in intercollegiate athletics. He
served as commissioner of the Great Midwest
Conference since its formation in 1991, and played
a pivotal role in the Great Midwest becoming one
of the most successful and exciting conferences in
the nation in the 1990's. His previous athletic
administrative experiences include: assistant
director of athletics at Dartmouth College (1968-
69), assistant Executive Director of the Pacific-10
Conference (1979-81), and Director of Athletics at
Cornell University (1981-83), prior to developing
his sports practice specializing in representing colleges
and universities in athletic-related matters.
A native of Utica, N.Y., Slive was senior partner
and founder of the Mike Slive-Mike Glazier
Sports Group.
Slive graduated from Dartmouth College with
a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1962. He earned a
Juris Doctor from the University of Virginia Law
School in 1965 and an LLM from the Georgetown
University Law Center in 1966.
Slive and his wife, Elizabeth, are the parents
of a daughter, Anna.

Rollercoaster fans would have loved the 2002 Florida
softball season. It had a slow start with a dramatic
upward climb then a long drop, several little ups and
downs, twists and turns and then, after 67 games, it came
to a screeching end. Like every rollercoaster ride, there
were a few bumps and bruises, a few scary moments, a lot
of fun and a lot of excitement.
Florida Softball 2002 "The Ride" opened on Feb. 8-10
with the GRU Classic in Gainesville. It was a slow start
with the team going 2-3 and taking second at its home
stadium. The Gators began to climb when they took one
game of a midweek doubleheader from ninth-ranked
Washington at the Florida Softball Stadium. Florida
faced the Huskies two more times in the UF
Hotel and Conference Center Invitational,
defeating them both times and earning a 5-0
record in the tournament for the win. The Gators
extended their win streak to seven games with two wins
over St. Johns.
The Gators headed out on the road for three weeks
with a 10-4 record. The top of the hill was just before the
start of those three weeks as, unbeknownst to the
team, the notorious big drop was right before them.
The Gators won just two of their next fifteen
games. However, during this time, over half of
those game were against teams ranked in the
National Fastpitch Coaches Association's Top
25, four of the games were against teams
ranked in the top five. The Gators went 1-4 in
both the Louisiana Classics Tournament in
Lafayette, La. hosted by top 25-ranked
Louisiana-Lafayette and the Stacy Winsberg
Memorial Tournament in Los Angeles, Calif.,
hosted by No. 1 UCLA. While in California the team also
lost two games to No. 16 Cal State Fullerton. At the tail
end of the long road stand, the Gators opened the
Southeastern Conference portion of the season with three
losses to the league's top team, No. 5 LSU.
The next part of the season was the part where there
are lots of little ups and downs, twists and turns, with the
ride going at a fast and furious pace the whole time. It
was the part of the ride where, sometimes, you fly out of
your seat with excitement or you are glued to your seat
with anticipation as to what will come next.
The Gators returned home from their road trip to end
a seven-game losing streak with a win over Kentucky.
Florida went on to the series, winning two of the three
games. The team headed out on the road again to
Tuscaloosa, Ala. to face another ranked SEC team. Florida
lost two heartbreakers in the midweek doubleheader, as
they had 3-1 leads in both games, but seven Gator errors
in the two games were just what Alabama needed for the
wins. The Crimson Tide completed the seep with a win the
next day and Florida's road losing streak moved to nine
games.
The Gators headed back home to host its third and
final tournament on the season. They swept through the
tournament with a perfect record, including the first
overtime win of the season and two wins over No. 25
Wisconsin, for their second home tournament championship
of the season. SEC play continued later that week
with the Auburn Tigers coming to Gainesville for a midweek
series. The Tigers swept the opening doubleheader,
but Florida came back to win
game three, preventing a
third SEC sweep.
Florida picked ups
its first SEC double-
Junior shortstop Jackie Marchetta earned All-SEC honors, despite missing games with a
broken wrist. She scored the winning run against South Carolina in a 1-0 eight inning decision
at the Florida Softball Stadium in the last home series of the season
header sweep at the end of March with 4-1 and 2-1 wins
over Arkansas at the Florida Softball Stadium. The Lady
Backs prevented the series sweep with a 4-1 final game
win on Easter Sunday. The Gators ended their road losing
streak at 10 games, when they won the second game
of a doubleheader at Ole Miss 2-0. The Rebels took the
other two games in the series, but getting a win on the
road was one of the biggest bumps in the ride that the
Gators had to get over. Unfortunately, one of those unanticipated
twists also came on the field in Oxford, Miss.
Junior short stop Jackie Marchetta broke her third finger
on her right hand and would have to sit out the
majority of the remaining games.
Florida reached the .500 plateau again with
two big wins over South Florida in Tampa and
a win over No. 23 Georgia in the first game
of the series with the Bulldogs. The Gators
dropped below the midpoint with a loss in
the second game. Against South Florida, Mylin
Prieto added a fun upward to the ride when she
became only the third Gator in school history to
hit a grand slam.
The Gators headed to Tallahassee to the home of
their biggest instate rivals in the middle of April.
Tomorrow hopes we have learned something from yesterday. - John Wayne
They took the first game against the No. 21 team in the
country and eventual World Series contenders, 7-1, but
lost the second 1-6. That one win against Florida State
was enough to give the Gators some momentum going
into their last home series of the season and get them
going quickly up that last big hill in the ride.
Senior weekend proved to be a fabulous home sendoff
for 2002's lone senior, Katy Berger. The Gators swept the
Saturday doubleheader against SEC East-leading South
Carolina, winning the first game 1-0 in eight innings and
the second game 2-1. In yet another fun twist, Florida was
able to capitalize on South Carolina errors for the wins
and Jackie Marchetta, serving only as a pinch runner due
to her broken finger, scored the winning run in the extra
inning game. Berger went 4-for-6 in the final home
doubelheader of her career. The Gators lost the Sunday
game, 1-0 no hitter, the Gators were still flying high
heading into Knoxville for a series that would
decide their post-season fate. If Florida swept the
series, it was assured a spot in the SEC
Tournament. If not the final series against
Mississippi State would be the determining
games, as Florida and Tennessee were
tied for the eighth and final spot in the
tournament with only three games to
go for the Lady Vols and six for the
Gators.
Florida was up to the challenge.
The team swept its first SEC series of
the season and played the way everyone
knew they were capable of playing
all along. Marchetta, always the
one for adding twists to the ride,
added an extra big one in Knoxville. In her first
game back in the field and at the plate, she
went 7-for-12 on the series
with seven RBI and
scored eight runs. She
scored every
time she
Mandy Schuerman was one of Florida’s most exciting and versatile
players in 2002. She earned All-SEC honors and was recognized
as the SEC Co-Freshman of the Year.

reached base and had two doubles and two home
runs in the three games. Her two home runs were the
first of her career. She finished the week with a 1.250
slugging percentage and one stolen base. Marchetta
also had a perfect fielding percentage with three put
outs and 11 assists. She was later named SEC Player
of the Week for her performance. Berger and freshman
Jessie Franklin also hit the first home runs of
their careers. The Gators set a new school record for
home runs in a game with four in the first game of
the series.
Florida headed into the final series of the regular
season with a chance to move as high as fifth in the
SEC standings and still had a chance of making NCAA
Regional play if they could keep their record above
.500 and continue to play like they did at Tennessee.
Like every ride you go on for the first time, you are
never quite sure about the ending. It could be one
where you just stay at the top of that final hill and
coast into the station, or you can have one final drop
before coming to sudden halt. Unfortunately the
Gators picked the drop and halt style ride. They went
into Starkville and just were not able to take advantage
of the chances they were given. Mississippi State
swept the final SEC series and the Gators took the
eighth seed in the SEC Tournament.
Florida faced off against top-seeded LSU in the
first game of the tournament. They had high hopes,
but just could not find their groove on offense or
defense and were shutout 0-5. The loss sent them to
the bottom half of the bracket for a game against
Auburn on the second day of the double elimination
tournament. After a 90-minute rain delay, the Tigers
got the best of the Gators, ending Florida's season
The only use of a knowledge of the past is to equip us for the present. - Alfred North Whitehead
with a 1-7 loss and halting the ride.
Several individuals earned honors for the season.
Marchetta and freshman Mandy Schuerman earned
second team All-SEC honors. Schuerman was named
the SEC's Co-Freshman of the Year for her oustanding
play throughout the season.
While it was at times fun and exciting and the
Gators learned a lot from 2002 "The Ride", possibly
the best lesson learned was that they didn't want to
have a ride like that again. They got a taste of what
it was like to be at the top and knew that was where
they wanted to stay. The coaches have the drive and
the know-how to make it where they want to be. They
have passed that vision onto the players and
everyone is ready to make 2003 and steady
climb to the top.
Katy Berger was Florida’s lone senior in 2002.

Important Information for Prospective
Student-AThletes
Prospective Student-Athlete
You are a "prospective student-athlete" when you start ninth grade classes.
Before the ninth grade, you become a prospective student-athlete if a college
gives you (or your relatives or friends) any financial aid or other benefits that
the college does not provide to prospective students generally.
You become a "recruited prospective student-athlete" at a particular college if
any coach or representative of the college's athletics interest (booster or representative)
approaches you (or any member of your family) about enrolling and
participating in athletics at that college. Activities by coaches or boosters that
cause you to become a recruited prospective student-athlete are:
0 providing you with an official visit;
0 placing more than one telephone call to you or any other member of your
family; or
0 visiting you or any other member of your family anywhere other than the
college campus.
Boosters
In addition to general recruiting regulations, no alumni, boosters or representatives
of a college's athletics interest can be involved in your recruiting. There can
be no phone calls or letters from boosters.
This restriction does not apply to recruiting by alumni or representatives as part
of a college's regular admissions program for all prospective students, including
nonathletes.
You (or your family) may not receive any benefit, inducement or arrangement
such as cash, clothing, cars, improper expenses, transportation, gifts or loans to
encourage you to sign a National Letter of Intent to attend an NCAA college.
Contacts
A college coach may contact you in person off the college campus only on or after
July 1 after the completion of your junior year in high school. Any face-to-face
meeting between a college coach and you or your parents during which any of
you say more than "hello" is a contact. Also, any face-to-face meeting that is
prearranged or that occurs at your high school or competition or practice site is
a contract, regardless of the conversation. These contacts are not permissible
"bumps."
Evaluations
An evaluation is any off-campus activity used to assess your academic qualifications
or athletics ability, including a visit to your high school (during which no
contact occurs) or watching you practice or compete at any site.
Official Visits
You can have one expense paid (official) visit to a particular campus. You may
take no more that a total of five such visits. This restriction applies even if you
are being recruited in more than one sport. You can't have an official visit
unless you have given the college your high school (or college) academic transcript
and a score from a PSAT, an SAT, a PACT Plus or an ACT taken on a national
test date under national testing conditions. Your academic transcripts may be
a photocopy of your official high school (or college) transcript.
During your official visit (which may not exceed 48 hours), you may receive
round trip transportation between your home (or high school) and the campus,
and you (and your parents) may receive meals, lodging and complimentary
admissions to a campus athletics event.
Unofficial Visits
You can visit a college campus at your expense as often as you would like. On
such a visit (unofficial) you may receive three complimentary admissions to a
home athletics contest.
Printed Materials
A Division I college that is recruiting you may provide to you the following printed
materials on or after September 1 of your junior year:
0 Official academic, admissions and student services publications and video
tapes published by the college;
0 General correspondence, including letters and college note cards (attachments
to correspondence may include materials printed on plain white
paper with black ink);
0 A media guide or recruiting brochure (but not both) in each sport;
0 One wallet-size playing schedule card in each sport; and
0 Any necessary preenrollment information about orientation, conditioning,
academics, practice activities, as long as you have signed a National Letter
of Intent or have been accepted for enrollment.
Should you have any questions regarding any NCAA rules or regulations, please
contact our Compliance Office at (352) 375-4683, extension 6022 or contact the
volleyball office for program information at volleyball@gators.uaa.ufl.edu.
Remember, ask before you act.

2001-02 Florida Athletics
Year-In-Review
The University of Florida athletic program used
12 top-10 national team finishes to claim the
third-place plaque in the 2001-02 Sears
Directors' Cup national all-sports competition, the
National Association of Collegiate Directors of
Athletics (NACDA) announced in June. Florida also
finished third in the Sears Directors' Cup standings
in 1995-96. The program's highest finish of second
came in the 1997-98 season.
Florida has ranked among the nation's 10 best collegiate
athletic programs for 19 consecutive years.
Florida and UCLA are the only schools to finish in
the top 10 in national all-sports rankings every year
since 1983-84.
The Sears Directors' Cup, presented annually by the
nation's athletics directors, recognizes the schools
with the best overall sports performances in an academic
year.
Points awarded for an institution's finish in up to 20
sports
determine the all-sports champion. This is the first
year that the Sears Directors' Cup scoring structure
awarded points for both indoor and outdoor track &
field. In previous years, a program was awarded
track points based on the best finish in indoor or
outdoor competition. Fielding 20 athletic teams,
Florida finished third with 1,078 points. Stanford
claimed the title with its current total of 1,499.
A program-record total of 12 Gator athletic teams
finished in the top 10 of their respective sports in
2001-02, matching the record set in the 1992-93
season when 12 teams also posted top-10 finishes.
Florida's top-10 teams in 2001-02 NCAA competition
include: Women's Tennis (2nd); Football (3rd in
both AP & USA Today/ESPN), Women's Indoor Track
& Field (3rd), Soccer (T3rd), Men's Swimming &
Diving (4th), Men's Outdoor Track & Field (T4th),
Volleyball (T5th), Women's Outdoor Track & Field

seasons. UF won SEC crowns in soccer, women's
swimming & diving, women's indoor track & field
and volleyball. The Florida women's tennis team also
collected the SEC Tournament title in 2002.
Three Gators won NCAA Individual Championships
and 72 UF student-athletes earned 156 All-America
honors. Candice Scott captured the women's NCAA
Indoor weight throw crown, Rickey Harris won the
400-meter hurdles title, while Adam Sioui claimed
the 200-yard freestyle championship.
For an unprecedented sixth time, the University of
Florida completed a sweep of all three Southeastern
Conference All-Sports titles, capturing the New York
Times Regional Newspaper Group SEC All-Sports
title as well as finishing first in this year's men's and
women's all-sports competition. Prior to 1992, no
school in SEC history had ever won both the men's
and women's all-sports titles in the same academic
year. Florida became the first to win all three in 1992
and has repeated the feat in 1993, 1996, 1998, 2000
and 2002.
Florida was also successful away from the athletic
arena in 2001-02, earning a league record 149
Southeastern Conference Academic Honor Roll accolades.
UF has had 1,428 Academic All-SEC honorees
since 1980, tops in the league. Five UF student-athletes
also earned spots on Verizon Academic All-
America teams in 2001-02, giving the Gators 46
Academic All-Americans since 1992, the fourth highest
total among Division I schools during that span.
Two UF student-athletes - Andi Sellers (soccer) and
Matt Bonner (men's basketball) were named the
Verizon Academic All-Americans of the Year for their
sports.
In addition, in an era when the NCAA estimates 70
percent of Division I schools are losing money on
intercollegiate athletics, the Gator athletic program
continued to have an impact in regard to University
academic programs. Since 1990, the University
Athletic Association has contributed more than
$25.2 million to the University to fund academic
endeavors.
Florida's athletic program also serves as a focal
point for the surrounding community and beyond,
as 9.2 million fans have filed through the gates to
attend UF sporting events over the past nine years.
More than 863,539 fans attended 155 home events
in Gainesville in 2001-02 and four UF athletic teams
ranked in the top-10 nationally in attendance.
University of Florida student-athletes have donated
many hours to the Gainesville and surrounding communities.
The "Goodwill Gators" program was recognized
by the National Consortium of Academics
and Sports and received the 1998 Outreach and
Service Award.
Sports Illustrated for Women rated the Gator
women’s athletic program No. 2 in the nation in
August 1999 and
again in 2000.

A player’s effectiveness is directly related to his ability to be right there, doing that thing, in the moment ... He can’t be worrying about
the past or the future or the crowd or some other extraneous event. He must be able to respond in the here and now. - John Brodie
