Bio
The 1982 winner of what was then the Broderick Cup was University of Florida swimming legend Tracy Caulkins, who went on to become the first-ever two-time recipient when she shared the 1984 honor with USC’s Cheryl Miller. At just 15 years old, Tracy captured five gold medals and a silver at the World Championships in Berlin, and soon after made history at Florida, teaming up with her sister Amy to lead the Lady Gators to the NCAA’s first-ever women’s swimming and diving national title in 1982. Tracy's collegiate career featured 16 NCAA individual titles and three straight Broderick Awards for swimming. Tracy capped her career by winning three gold medals at the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics and today resides in Queensland, Australia with her family.
