With increased national exposure because of success in the American, UCF has and will continue to strengthen not only the profile and brand of the athletics programs, but the University as well. The football team accomplished a 28-game regular-season win streak (spanning over three seasons) on the way to a 10-3 mark in 2019 and a final #24 national ranking. The men's soccer squad advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16 (and winning the regular-season American Athletic Conference title) and the women's volleyball team won the AAC Tournament and advanced to the second round of the NCAA Championship. Baseball's record was 15-3 and stood #8 in the national RPI and softball's record was 21-5-1 and #7 in RPI before their seasons were cancelled due to the COVID pandemic. UCF is the only Division I athletics program in the country where all its "head-to-head" competition sports finished the season with a winning record for three straight years. The 2020 spring semester represented the 25th in a row in which UCF student-athletes compiled a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher. A record nine sports produced single-year APR scores of 1,000 in data announced by NCAA in spring 2020. 34623438 true true false false false false false false false true false false false true true true false false false false false false false true false false false true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false true false true 196 0 true 295 true true true false false false false true true false false false false true false X 6 5 false false false false true true false true true false false false true true true true false false false false FL X Brad Stricklin 4078236792 PO Box 163555 Orlando FL 32816 Alexander Cartwright CHAIRMAN/UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT (beginning April 2020) 2.0 40.0 X X 0 0 0 THADDEUS SEYMOUR CHAIRMAN/INTERIM UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT (thru April 2020) 2.0 40.0 X X 0 462291 59914 ALEX MARTINS BOARD MEMBER-EX-OFFICIO 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 BRENDAN RENNIE BOARD MEMBER-EX-OFFICIO 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 DR MANOJ CHOPRA DIRECTOR / UCF Professor of Engineering 2.0 40.0 X 0 199270 38013 PHYLLIS KLOCK DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 ZANDY SOREE DIRECTOR (SAAC PRESIDENT) 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 BRAD STRICKLIN CFO / SECRETARY & TREASURER 40.0 0.0 X 206712 0 18471 DANIEL WHITE ATHLETIC DIRECTOR/EXECUTIVE VP 40.0 0.0 X 0 1154152 50951 Glen Elarbee Assistant Coach, Football 40.0 0.0 X 454568 0 35591 JOHNNY DAWKINS HEAD COACH, MEN'S BASKETBALL 40.0 0.0 X 581138 0 33247 Joshua K Heupel Head Coach, Football 40.0 0.0 X 591482 0 30975 Randy Shannon Assistant Coach, Football 40.0 0.0 X 377030 0 33846 William O Martinez Assistant Coach, Football 40.0 0.0 X 390503 0 32879 DR JOHN HITT PRESIDENT EMERITUS (THRU January 2019) 0.0 0.0 X 0 475408 79542 2601433 2291121 413429 42 true true false JH Football LLC 8938 33rd Street N Suite 1 Lake Elmo MN 55042 Contract Services 1998147 Dawkins Family Services Inc 1180 Red Haven Lane Oviedo FL 32765 Contract Services 1077625 D&A Building Services PO Box 21241 Tampa FL 33622 Cleaning Services 536731 CONTEMPORARY SERVICES COMPANY 3660 MAGUIRE BLVD 103 ORLANDO FL 32803 EVENT SECURITY & CROWD MANAGEMENT 477557 Colonnade Group PO Box 43249 Birmingham AL 35243 Premium Services Management 283679 14 33622 4425511 5104048 9563181 STUDENT FEES 713990 24190962 24190962 CONFERENCE DISTRIBUTIONS 900099 4538152 4538152 TICKET SALES 711210 5962812 5962812 TUITION FEE WAIVERS 611710 8902308 8902308 SPONSORSHIP REVENUES 541800 9048003 6844637 2203366 1355008 1355008 0 0 53997245 0 0 0 0 97617 33622 86067 11550 11550 0 0 0 0 0 63571976 51793879 2203366 11550 X 10107504 10107504 242897 242897 18444881 10378522 7948741 117618 671503 442221 229282 1685506 864210 798273 23023 1063304 527582 521656 14066 28811 28811 8865 8865 8351791 4262337 3963422 126032 399653 398840 813 4552167 328153 4090134 133880 279498 83141 183608 12749 1760524 15990 1702434 42100 4727204 4354145 193006 180053 16472 6099 9433 940 288656 288656 1183772 1183772 767728 10 767422 296 ATHLETIC SUPPLIES 1232916 694097 502867 35952 GAME GUARANTEES 1197476 1197476 Dues & Subscriptions 227707 163074 48487 16146 Sports Equipment 2166879 955515 902680 308684 528189 243362 210221 74606 59933903 34623438 24223507 1086958 161536 3769974 0 0 3097524 2061621 0 0 0 0 0 0 631970 485726 44046479 12978354 23831786 31068125 0 0 0 0 1021879 344722 28744695 37730168 2216769 935958 0 3077998 3470514 0 0 0 0 7873607 13925000 0 7174798 6648201 20343172 24979673 X 0 0 8401523 12750495 8401523 12750495 28744695 37730168 X 3638073 710899 X false true X true false X 13479135 13505791 9373609 9485702 9563181 55407418 0 0 13479135 13505791 9373609 9485702 9563181 55407418 0 55407418 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 784 0 0 784 0 0 3033545 60578 97617 3191740 58599942 239762418 0.9455 0.9501 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10 Other Income DESCRIPTION - OTHER INCOME, COLUMN A - 0.0, COLUMN B - 0.0, COLUMN C - 3000000.0, COLUMN D - 0.0, COLUMN E - 0.0, COLUMN F - 3000000.0; DESCRIPTION - FUNDRAISING INCOME, COLUMN A - 0.0, COLUMN B - 0.0, COLUMN C - 33545.0, COLUMN D - 60578.0, COLUMN E - 97617.0, COLUMN F - 191740.0; RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 700272 700272 21380577 7188474 14192103 7504987 1099419 6405568 5369256 4690461 678795 9091387 9091387 31068125 NOTES PAYABLE TO THE UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL FLORIDA 5198890 DUE TO THE UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL FLORIDA 142385 COMPENSATED ABSENCES 759450 DUE TO THE UCF CONVOCATION CORPORATION 111319 DUE TO THE UCF STADIUM CORP 436157 DUE TO KNIGHTS PARTNERSHIP ALLIANCE 6648201 X 64271325 710899 710899 63560426 11550 11550 63571976 59922353 0 0 59922353 11550 11550 59933903 Schedule D, Part X, Line 2 FIN 48 (ASC 740) footnote THE ASSOCIATION IS GENERALLY EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE.
