Track & Field Garners 38 USTFCCCA All-Region Selections

The Emory University Track and Field programs earned a combined 38 South/Southeast All-Region indoor track & field selections as announced by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) earlier this week.

To be named All-Region, an athlete must either be ranked in the top-5 of an individual event in the region according to final TFRRS data or be part of a top-3 relay team. The organization first began recognizing All-Region award winners in 2016.

The women's team, which finished the season as the top ranked team in the USTFCCCA South/Southeast regional rankings, earned 27 South/Southeast All-Region honors. NCAA-bound seniors Dilys Osei and Kayla O’Shea lead the way with three All-Region selections apiece while Boston-bound Dani Bland earned two All-Region honors.

On the men's side, the Eagles garnered 11 All-Region selections with sophomores Jacob Hedgepeth, Jack Whetstone and freshman William McGuire leading the way with two selections each.

O’Shea, Osei, Bland along with sophomore Liam Fost and freshman Brett Henshey will represent the Eagles at this weekend's NCAA Division III Indoor Championships. Action from Boston, MA begins Friday afternoon. For more information, please visit the NCAA Championship webpage found here: http://beaconsathletics.com/sports/w-track/ncaatfchampionship.
