NCWC’s Richardson named to All-Sportsmanship team

Fayetteville, NC - The USA South Athletic Conference has announced its All-Conference awards for cross country. While the Bishops did not place a runner on the All-Conference squad, Wesleyan is pleased to announce that sophomore Juliana Richardson was named to the inaugural All-Sportsmanship team.  Richardson (pictured), a native of nearby Roanoke Rapids, has been the Battling Bishops’ lead runner all season entering Saturday's USA South Championship.

Christopher Newport University swept all the individual categories as Amy Wampler and Edith Nault were named Runner and Rookie of the Year, respectively.  For the fifth consecutive year, Christopher Newport coach Keith Maurer was selected as both the men's and women's Coach of the Year.
