His time of 30:05.6 in the 10k earned him All-Region honors and helped the Jags to an NCAA National Championship appearance. He then became the first Augusta University runner ever to make the NCAA Division II all-America team by finishing 32nd in the cross-country national championships in Sacramento, Calif., on Nov. 23. The senior from Newnan, Georgia, and transfer from Emmanuel, turned in an outstanding performance with a 10ktime of 30:19.7.  He finished 29th in scoring.
