AUTi9er96 9 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 I am so proud of what this team continues to accomplish year after year. Let's take this one to the same heights that many teams before it have done and bring back a National Championship. You guys represent the Auburn Family well and we are very proud of you.

78auburnfan 0 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Totally AU some! Congratulations to the entire team and coaches! Does anyone know if there has ever been another school in the SEC in any sport to win 16 championships in a row? Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
95tgr4life 0 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Here is your answer 78 -With their 16th consecutive SEC title, Auburn moves into third all-time among SEC sports programs in consecutive conference titles. Florida volleyball had 18 straight from 1991-2008, and Arkansas men's cross country won 17 straight from 1991-2007. We are close to being the most dominate team in the history of the SEC, just need 3 more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AUIH1 1,515 Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 Hawke has done a pretty good job of sustaining the men's dynasty that Marsh built although we have slipped a bit nationally. The women's team has dropped off the most. I was heavily involved in club swimming for around 8 years with my older daughter (she swam competitively from the time she was 8 until she graduated high school). During that time she attended a couple of the AU swim camps while Marsh was coach. AU's swim program sets the standard by which all athletic programs on campus are judged in terms of actual success and performance. Those kids are taught/coached that winning the SEC is expected and winning the NCAA's should always be a real possibility. wde Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I believe in the last summer olympics if Auburn had been a country we would had finished in the top 15 in the world in metal counts. Of course it was mostly in swimming with current as well as former AU swimmers Quote Link to post Share on other sites
