King is the second Gator to be named the SEC Player of the Week this season.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – No. 4 Florida's Logan King has earned her third Southeastern Conference Defensive Player of the Week honor and first SEC Player of the Week honor after a weekend in which she filled the stat sheet in wins over South Carolina and Georgia.
The third-year led the team with 29 kills, 4.14 kills per set, 10 blocks, 1.43 blocks per set, 37 points and 5.29 points per set. She also hit .387 and helped anchor the defense with 20 digs.
Against South Carolina, King had 14 kills while hitting .462, along with eight digs and four blocks. She followed that with her fourth double-double of the season against Georgia, finishing with 15 kills, 12 digs, six blocks and two aces while hitting .333. Her .462 hitting percentage against South Carolina was a season best in a match with more than 10 attempts, and her .387 hitting percentage for the weekend was her best two-match stretch of conference play.
King's awards give the Gators their fourth SEC Defensive Player of the Week honor, the most since 2019, and their second SEC Player of the Week honor, following Taylor Parks on Oct. 26. Florida has earned seven SEC awards in 2026.
The Gators return to action Friday, Nov. 13, at Mississippi State with a chance to claim the outright SEC regular season title. First serve is set for 8 p.m. ET on SEC Network+.
