Thursday, May 27, 2021 | General
GAINESVILLE, Fla. -- Thanks to a prolonged track record of success, the Florida athletic program has a check next to most items on the proverbial bucket list.
But this past weekend, one of the few remaining boxes was filled in, with men's tennis claiming its first national title in front of a rowdy bunch of Gators in Orlando.
On this week's show, host Adam Schick connects with the man of the hour – championship-clinching freshman Ben Shelton – about their path to the title and what it meant to bring it home for his teammates, his school and his coach, who also happens to be his dad (1:45).
Then, FloridaGators.com senior writers Scott Carter and Chris Harry stop by to talk about tennis's crowning achievement, softball's shutout regional, a new head coach for the soccer program, Mike White's latest assistant and more (20:16).
