Cross-country teams get all-academic recognition

The Green Bay men’s and women’s cross country teams were recently recognized for their efforts off of the course, as both squads were named a United States Track and Field/Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) All-Academic Team. Green Bay was among 217 women’s teams and 160 men’s teams that earned All-Academic Team honors for the 2013 season, and one of just 146 programs that had both their women’s and men’s teams recognized. To be recognized, teams must have compiled a cumulative GPA of 3.00 or greater. Eight women’s and five men’s teams from the Horizon League received the honor.
