THE GATORS ENTERING THE TOM JONES MEMORIAL INVITE
The Gators posted a number of SEC, collegiate and world-leading performances last time out at the 2014 Pepsi Florida Relays April 3-5, resulting in a number of different weekly accolades for the Gators last week, including USTFCCCA National Athlete of the Week honors for Dedric Dukes April 6. A total of 15 Percy Beard Track and Pepsi Florida Relays records went down at the elite competition in Gainesville as the Gators welcomed high schools, colleges, universities and elite and Olympic athletes from around the world.
