Eloise Miller at the Outdoor Conference Championship |
The US Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association annually awards team Academic All-American recognition to teams whose cumulative GPA is over 3.1. This past season the Pioneers men's team came in with a 3.38 team GPA, and the women with a 3.61. Both the men and the women have earned this recognition every year it's been offered by the USTFCCCA.
In addition to the team awards, standout sprinter and jumper Eloise Miller also earned the recognition. This was the second year in a row Miller has been recognized. For individuals, the cutoff is a 3.30 cumulative GPA and a top 25 ranking in an individual event. Miller finished the year ranked in the top 25 in the triple jump as both a junior and as a senior. As an added bonus for the track and field teams, Eloise will be joining the staff for the upcoming Indoor and Outdoor Track and Field seasons.
Congrats to Eloise and to the Pioneers!
