Historyβ»
Larry Ray era: (1997β2000)β»
On June 13, 1995, the board of directors of the University Athletic Association approved the addition of a women's softball teamββto the University of Florida's athletic program. Larry Ray, who would coach the new team for their first four seasons, agreedββto be, the first head coach on September 4, 1995. After the construction of their new stadium facility, the Gators played their first two games in a doubleheader on February 8, 1997, against the Stetson Hatters, both of which they won.
In the inaugural year of the Florida Softball program, Ray's team posted an overall winβloss record of 42β25 and a Southeastern Conference record of 16β8, and was the runner-up in the SEC softball tournament, ultimately losing to the second-ranked South Carolina Gamecocks in the title game. Florida built on the early success of their first season to win the program's first-ever SEC regular season championship in 1998, and advance to the NCAA tournament. After the 2000 season, Ray left Florida to return to an assistant coaching position with the Arizona Wildcats softball team at the University of Arizona, where he previously coached.
Karen Johns era: (2001β2005)β»
For the 2001 season, Ray was replaced by Karen Johns. Under Johns, Florida qualified for the NCAA tournament four of five seasons, and compiled a record of 192β131 during her tenure in Gainesville. After the Gators finished third in the SEC Eastern Division for the fourth straight season, and suffered four consecutive losses in the 2005 SEC Tournament. And the opening round of the NCAA tournament, Johns was fired.

Tim Walton era: (2006βpresent)β»
To replace Johns, Florida athletic director Jeremy Foley hired the then-head coach of the Wichita State Shockers softball team, Tim Walton, as the Gators' new coach. Under Walton, the Florida softball team has become a consistent SEC and "national title contender." In 2014, the Gators won their first national title over Alabama, and the following year they repeated as national champions, this time by defeating Michigan.
2008 World Seriesβ»
In his third season as the Gators' head coach, he led the team to an NCAA single season record seventy wins and five losses. The team also made its first-ever Women's College World Series (WCWS) appearance after beating the California Golden Bears, two games to none, in the Gainesville Super Regional of the NCAA tournament. After losing its opening game of the WCWS to Louisiana Lafayette, the Gators won three straight against games the Virginia Tech Hokies and Texas A&M Aggies. However, in the double-elimination format of the NCAA tournament, the Gators needed to beat Texas A&M twice in the WCWS semifinals to move into the championship final series. That second semifinal game went two extra innings before either team scored, and the Aggies earned the 1β0 victory in the ninth inning. Gators pitcher Stacey Nelson ended the 2008 season with single-season school records in wins (47), strikeouts (363), innings pitched (352.1), and earned run average (0.75).
2009 World Seriesβ»
Florida began its 2009 season ranked No. 1 in the country in both major college softball polls. But finished second after falling 8β0 and 3β2 to the Washington Huskies in the best-of-three-games final championship series of the 2009 Women's College World Series. The Gators compiled an overall record of 63β5 and completed its SEC regular season with a record of 26β1. They also broke the SEC single-season record for home runs (86), and several single-season team records including grand slams (12), total shutouts (39), and consecutive shutouts (11). Aja Paculba set the single-season stolen base record (27), Francesca Enea broke the career home run record (41) in her junior season, and the Florida pitching staff threw three no-hitters in the regular season (Stephanie Brombacher vs. Coastal Carolina; Stacey Nelson vs. Ole Miss and Arkansas). Nelson was named the Lowe's Senior CLASS Award winner and the SEC Pitcher of the year for the second straight year. Nelson was named to the All-American first team (pitcher), and Brombacher (pitcher), Enea (outfielder), Kelsey Bruder (outfielder), and Paculba (second baseman) were named to the second team.
2010 World Seriesβ»
The 2010 Florida softball team again qualified for the NCAA tournament and advanced to the 2010 Women's College World Series. In the opening game of the Series, the fourth-seeded Gators were decisively defeated 16β3 by the UCLA Bruins, who ultimately won the 2010 championship. The Gators recovered to eliminate the ninth-seeded Missouri Tigers 5β2, before being edged 3β2 and eliminated in turn by the sixth-seeded Georgia Bulldogs.
2011 World Seriesβ»
During the 2011 season, Florida experienced a series of up-and-down streaks, but recovered to win the SEC Eastern Division for the fourth consecutive year. After being upset by the Auburn Tigers in the first round of the SEC tournament, the Gators qualified for the NCAA tournament and advanced to the 2011 Women's College World Series. In the World Series semi-finals, Florida twice defeated the SEC champion Alabama Crimson Tide, 16β2 and 9β2, to advance to the finals. The top-ranked Arizona State Sun Devils, in turn, swept the Gators, 14β4 and 7β2, in the best-of-three championship finals.
2012 NCAA tournamentβ»
On the eve of the NCAA tournament, three players: Cheyenne Coyle, Sami Fagan, and Kasey Fagan were dismissed from the team. No. 5 Florida lost to Florida Gulf Coast and USF in the Regionals and failed to reach the WCWS for the first time in Walton's tenure at UF.
2013 World Seriesβ»
Despite winning the SEC regular season and tournament titles, No. 2 Florida lost to Tennessee 2β9 to open the WCWS. After a thrilling 9β8 extra innings game win against Nebraska, they lost 0β3 to Texas to end their season.
2014 National Champsβ»
Florida beat rival Alabama for their first national championship with tournament MVP Hannah Rogers in the circle.
2015 National Champsβ»
Led by the USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year in Lauren Haeger, Florida became just the third team in the history of college softball to win back to back national championships. They defeated Michigan in the last game of the best of three series 4β1 to win the title. Lauren Haeger then went on to win the 2015 Honda Award.
2017 World Series
In 2017, Florida again secured the number one seed for the third straight year. After failing to make it to the WCWS in 2016 as the number one seed, Florida made it to the finals. In the finals, Florida took on rival Oklahoma, the number 10 overall seed. In game one, Oklahoma outlasted Florida after 17 innings in the longest WCWS game ever. The following day, Florida lost 4β5, and Oklahoma won the 2017 WCWS.

Facility upgradesβ»
In September 2016, the UAA announced a massive $100 million facilities initiative that included renovating many areas of the University of Florida's sports landscape. One of the improvements included in the plan was a renovation of the softball complex at Seashole Pressly Stadium. The plan states that existing bleachers behind home plate would be replaced with chairback seating, with additional bleachers extended down each foul line to accommodate 750 to 1,000 more seats; expanded press box, concession and restroom areas, upgraded coaches and players' facilities, as well as some shade structure. The university hopes to complete these projects before 2021.
