This group has won 23 team SEC Championships, one NCAA Championship, 84 Individual/Relay SEC Championships, and 26 Individual/Relay NCAA Championships over the years. We also celebrate the remarkable accomplishments of our 2024 Hall of Fame Class. Champions Weekend is dedicated to honoring championship anniversaries of 10, 20, 25, 30, 40, and 50 years.
