UF coach Kevin O’Sullivan’s children helped ease pressure during Gators’ national title run

Florida coach Kevin O’Sullivan had many duties at the College World Series. Some of the more urgent ones had nothing to do with baseball.

“I’ve had to make sure the spinners are working and the iPad is charged,” O’Sullivan said.

Along for the championship ride were his daughter Payton, 6, and son Finn, 4, each of whom were on the field after Tuesday’s championship game.

“To have them experience this with me means the world,” O’Sullivan said.

The younger O’Sullivans have been with the team much of the season, helping provide, at times, perspective and others comic relief.
