The USM women's cross country team has been named an Academic All-America team. They were designated by the Division III Cross Country Coaches Assn. for the 5th time in seven years. To qualify, the seven runners who competed for USM at the regionals were required to have a combined GPA of at least 3.00 for the fall semester. Three runners -- Hollie Harnish, Jennifer Ditzel, and Jessica Short -- earned individual honors with a GPA of 3.50 or higher. Congratulations to the team and its athletes!
