INDIANAPOLIS---The NCAA Division II Men’s and Women’s Track and Field Committee has announced the participants for the 2008 NCAA Division II Men’s and Women’s Cross Country Championships.

In order to be eligible to participate in the championships, teams and individuals had to qualify in their respective NCAA region competitions that were held this past weekend.

A total of 368 participants (184 men and 184 women) will compete in the championships.  All regions automatically qualified two teams of seven student-athletes each.  Additional berths were awarded to the regions with the first eight team finishers at the 2007 NCAA Division II Men’s and Women’s Cross Country Championships.

All regions automatically qualify the top two individuals from non-qualifying teams.  In addition, all individual competitors who finish in the top five overall places in their respective regional meet and are not a member of a qualifying team automatically advance to the championships.


Slippery Rock University of Pennsylvania will host the championships, November 22, at Cooper’s Lake Campground in Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania.  The men’s race will begin at noon Eastern time followed by the women’s race at 1:15 p.m. Eastern time.
