November 11, 2013

NEW ORLEANS – More than 390 Division II student-athletes were recognized Monday as All-Region honorees by U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) following the weekend’s NCAA regional championship meets.

Those runners of USTFCCCA member schools who finished top-25 individually at one of the eight regional sites across the country earned the honor, 394 in total.

Four men’s teams and two women’s teams put seven runners on the All-Region list. On the men’s side, RMAC rivals Western State and Adams State, Edinboro and Augustana (S.D.) each came away with seven honorees. Grand Valley State and the Adams State both featured seven All-Region runners on the women’s side.

In terms of conferences, the men’s teams in the PSAC — led by Edinboro’s seven and Lock Haven’s six — was tops with 24 honorees, followed closely by the RMAC with 22 behind Adams State and Western State.

The PSAC also topped the list of women’s conferences with 24 honorees and 13 different schools represented, followed by the GLIAC (21) and the RMAC (18).

The NCAA Division II Cross Country Championships will be held November 23 in Spokane, Wash., hosted by the GNAC at the Plantes Ferry Athletic Complex. The meet will be broadcast live online at NCAA.com.

Regional rankings are final based on the results of the regional championships, and the final regular-season Division II National Coaches Polls will be released Wednesday. Additionally, regional athletes and coaches of the year will be announced Tuesday.
