The day after (November 14, 2010) the NCAA Regional Championships the At-Large Teams were announced by the NCAA...
Jon Wilson's race number for the NCAA Southeast Regional Championships in Louisville, KY proved, in retrospect, to foreshadow the Spiders destiny as they placed 4th as a team earning a spot at the NCAA National Championships.
The day after the NCAA Southeast Region Championships the Spiders gathered in the Robins Center Hall-Of-Fame Room for the NCAA Team Selection announcements.
The wait continued...
...and continued...
After the the Automatic Qualifiers (top 2) from each Region were announced, the At-Large-Teams were announced...
...and the 26th team to earn a spot into the 2010 NCAA Championships...."The Spiders of Richmond!"
Years of hard work...hard training...sacrifice...self discipline...came together.
The next stop is Terre Haute and the NCAA National Cross Country Championships. This will mark the first time Richmond has sent a team to the National XC Championships. It will also be the first time a team from the Atlantic 10 Conference has qualified to the NCAA Championships since Penn State did so in 1989.
