History has been made again by UK Athletics.
The final 2021-22 Learfield Directors’ Cup standings have been released, which have UK checking in at No. 9 overall, the highest finish in school history. The previous record was a No. 10 finish in 2016-17.
When you look back at all of the success various UK programs have had over the last year, it’s no surprise to see this record-breaking finish. It was highlighted by a national championship in rifle, an NCAA runner-up finish in men’s tennis, a third-place national finishes by women’s indoor and outdoor track & field, and a 10-3 season for the football team that included a Citrus Bowl win over a top-15 Iowa team.
