    I was wondering if it was possibly COVID related.

    You aren’t kidding.
    3 of the top 11 and four of the top 18 on the women’s side:

    3 of the top 8 on the men’s side.

    Way Too Early Recruit Ranks: Boys High School Class of 2023

    Finke, Dressel, Ladecky etc made it a banner year for program pub. Glad they are riding that momentum.

    Thanks for the response back. My wife is Chapter Adviser for her Sorority here in Gainesville and told me that they have around 20-25 women who have caught the flu. Thanks again.

    Goodness gracious - Bella Simms just committed to UF - #1 ranked women's recruit in 2023 class with a time in 500 free that would have won NCAA title last year- absolute stud recruit.
