LINK – ASHLAND UNIVERSITY TRACK AND FIELD PAGE

Eleven Ashland University athletes were named 2018 NCAA Division II Outdoor All-Americans on Tuesday (May 29) by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA).

Student-athletes earned First-Team USTFCCCA All-America status by virtue of finishing among the top eight in their events – including as a member of a relay team – at this past weekend's NCAA Division II Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Charlotte, N.C. Second-team honors were bestowed upon those finishing ninth through 12th. Ninth- and 10th-place relay teams also earn the distinction.
