ORLANDO, Fla. – Gators Great Grant Holloway became the second member of Florida’s track and field program to win The Bowerman, collegiate track and field’s highest individual honor and the sport’s version of the Heisman Trophy, as the United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association of America presented the men’s and women’s awards as part of a 90-minute ceremony Thursday night at Orlando’s JW Marriott Grande Lakes.

Holloway joins Marquis Dendy as the program’s only other recipient of The Bowerman. As a former winner, Dendy was on hand to witness Holloway’s coronation. Dendy won The Bowerman following his senior season in 2015. Florida and Oregon are the only two programs with multiple men’s winners of The Bowerman, which was first awarded following the 2009 season.
