I'm a bit confused on what an All American is for Division II. Reading Harding's and Western State's websites, they both talk of how their foreign athletes earned All American status. From my understanding All American honors are given to the top 30 US citizens. Any thoughts?
Do a little research. It's been talked about plenty lately
top 30 finishers, american or foreign=all american
top 30 americans==>top finishing americans-foreign athletes(in the top 30)=all american
I'm just curious where you got this info as far as the top 30 regardless of what citezenship you are?
You get the info from the results that is what the x next to the names is for. Each Coach is to declare their International students, so for KenyaSaw or Harding of the Rift Valley and Abiliene Kenyan that would be just about all of them. There were 4 international students in the top 30 in the women's race so All American certificates were given down to 34th place over all. There were 7 in the men's race.
Just goes to prove you can't buy a Championship with Internationals if you can't coach. Van Driver of the year!
