NAIA T&F Auto Qualifier List Climbs to 54
PORTLAND, Ore. – The list of automatic qualifiers from the Cascade Collegiate Conference to the NAIA Outdoor Track and Field Championships has grown to 54, according to the latest listing on www.directathletics.com.
The NAIA Championships will be held May 21-23 in St. Louis.
Of the 54 student-athletes who have reached automatic qualifying marks, 32 are on the women’s side and 22 on the men’s side. In addition, 44 student-athletes have met NAIA provisional qualifying standards. Eight others competing in the decathlon or heptathlon are currently on pace to qualify automatically based on their current national standing (the top 16 in the multi-events will advance to the national meet).
Concordia has a league-leading 28 automatic qualifying marks – 16 on the women’s side and 12 on the men’s side. The latest to join the group were Annie Hess (discus), Kristine Leonard (shot put) and Lauren Moran (steeplechase). Southern Oregon has totaled eight automatic qualifying marks, and is followed by Eastern Oregon (7), College of Idaho (6) and Oregon Tech (4).
The 2009 Cascade Collegiate Conference Track and Field Championships will be held May 7-9 at Mt. Hood CC in Gresham, Ore.
