A trio of Florida gymnasts have claimed All-SEC honors, the league office announced Wednesday afternoon. Selena Harris-Miranda and Leanne Wong have earned All-SEC honors, while Taylor Clark was named to the SEC All-Freshman team. Harris-Miranda has also been named the SEC Newcomer of the Year, a new title this season.
Selena Harris-Miranda
This is the first year the SEC has recognized a newcomer of the year in its annual awards. Harris-Miranda transferred to Florida from UCLA, where she earned the title of Pac-12 Gymnast of the Year last season.
In Florida’s final regular-season meet against Kentucky, the junior posted the nation’s second-highest all-around score of 39.875. She has posted three perfect 10.0s so far this season – two on vault and one on beam. Her second perfect score on vault came last weekend at the SEC Championship where she won the vault title.

Harris-Miranda was the first in the country to score a 10.0 on vault this season. She has also been named All-SEC for all-around, vault and uneven bars. Harris-Miranda is one of six to earn three or more 2025 All-SEC honors.
Leanne Wong
Wong was named All-SEC for all-around, vault, uneven bars, balance beam and floor exercise. She is one of two to earn the maximum of five All-SEC honors, the other being Faith Torres of Oklahoma.
Her season-best all-around score of 39.75, which she posted twice, is among the nation’s top seven all-around totals this season. She is currently tied as the No. 2 all-arounder in the country behind Oregon State’s Jade Carey.
Wong has scored three perfect 10.0s this season, with one on bars, floor and beam. With 11 so far in her collegiate career, she is No. 2 all-time for the Gators. Her most recent perfect score came on bars at the SEC Championship, helping Florida set an NCAA record on the apparatus.
