In 2022, former walk-on Adam Mihalek controlled the field goal and extra point duties for the Gators while the highly touted Trey Smack appeared in the final seven games on kickoffs.
Mihalek burst on to the scene after an impressive 2022 spring game, where the Tampa native connected on field goals from 52 and 49 yards.
“I had a strong showing last spring, super confident, and then yeah, I was lucky enough to have an opportunity to hit a 52-yarder… executed it,” Mihalek said.
Mihalek says last year’s Orange and Blue game gave him confidence moving forward.
