NEW ORLEANS, La. – The NC State track and field team has received three U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) All-America citations for the 2019-20 indoor season, as announced the organization on Tuesday.
Cravont Charleston (60m), Kelsey Chmiel (5000m) and Michelle Cobb (triple jump) earned the status.
All invdividuals listed on the startlist at the 2020 NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships qualified as All-Americans. A total of 671 honors were handed out to 119 different institutions on Tuesday.
