Gator great Amanda Lorenz clinched the 2024 Athletes Unlimited Championship Season individual title on Sunday. In the five-year history of the event, two of the winners have been Florida alumni as Lorenz joins Aleshia Ocasio, the 2021 champion who also finished third in this year's standings. Amanda Lorenz celebrates her 2024 AU Softball championship.
"It's an honor," Lorenz said on ESPNU. "It's a tribute to all the amazing athletes that I got to play with this whole season. Without them helping me win ballgames, I wouldn't be here, so I'm just really thankful to play alongside some really, really talented people."
Lorenz, an outfielder, also becomes the second hitter to win the league championship, following Dejah Mulipolah in 2022. Lorenz tied for the league batting title with a .373 average throughout the 15-game season.
