  ATHLETIC ACADEMIC SUPPORT SERVICES

Seminole student-athletes have the premier opportunity to be coached and mentored by the best coaches in all of collegiate athletics. Together, these national recognized coaches have helped lead the Seminoles to 13 national championships, 50 ACC Championships, and numerous players of the year awards.  

The coaches at Florida State University provide the ultimate environment for student-athletes to grow both on and off the field. During 2008-2009, these athletes demonstrated why Florida State is home to the pinnacle in collegiate athletics.

Florida State student-athletes daily cross paths and work side-by-side with national and conference players of the year, Olympic athletes, future professional athletes, and academic award winners.  

During 2008-2009, the track and field team won six individual national championships, Sarah Hamilton won ACC pitcher of the year, Toney Douglas won ACC Defensive Player of the Year, all-ACC 1st team, and became Florida State's ninth 1st round draft pick in school history, Jean-Yves Aubone won ACC Tennis Player of the Year and became Florida State's first 2-time All-American in school history, and Myron Rolle shone brightly in the classroom when he became a Rhodes Scholar in fall 2008.
