Any doubt that the University of Florida had the dominant athletics program in the Southeastern Conference during the 2010-11 school year was put to rest Sunday as the university was named the SEC All-Sports champion by the New York Times Regional Media Group for the third-straight season. Sweeping all three titles – overall, men’s and women’s – the Florida Gators won by staggering numbers in each category, literally dominating the competition.

Florida is the only school to sweep all three titles in a single season, accomplishing the feat for the 11th time, fourth in the last five years and third-in-a-row (2006-07, 2008-09, 2009-10). All 16 of UF’s sports (nine women’s, seven men’s) were counted with cross country, indoor and outdoor track & field combined into one unit per gender.

The Gators won eight SEC titles over this period: baseball, men’s basketball, men’s golf, men’s track & field, women’s cross country, soccer, women’s tennis and volleyball. It is the fourth time UF has won seven or more SEC titles in a single season.

Florida has been victorious in 21 of the last 24 All-Sports awards with the men’s program winning its 15th and women’s program winning its 18th respective individual titles.

The Gators lead the SEC with 201 all-time team titles.

    It’s GREAT to BE a Florida Gator!

    Congratulations, Gators! This is a testament that Foley is a probably the best AD in the country and supports all sports, not just football and basketball.

    With our resourses and other advantages it would be a travesty if UF did not win this. It’s ours to lose every year so to me it’s a birthright not a wow!

    Us gators are entitled to nothing…everything must be earned…this is a major accomplishment..no matter how many times we win it….”its our birth-right” is the type of mentality that breeds bad seasons…
