Florida is trying to prove last year’s Final Four run wasn’t a fluke.

The Gators took a step toward accomplishing that when they went 2-1 at the Intercollegiate Tennis Association National Team Indoor Championships in Madison, Wisconsin, on Feb. 14-16. It was their best finish at the event since 2010.

Following the event, UF (11-2) dropped to No. 6 after being ranked No. 3 heading into the tournament.

Coach Shelton said he believes Florida is capable of repeating last year’s success.

“I think we can make a serious title run,” Shelton said during media availability last week.
