Cal Poly senior Phillip Reid has made a habit of repeating awards this season as the senior cross country runner claimed All-America status for the second consecutive year following his performance at the NCAA Championships.

Reid, a native of Oxnard, Calif., led the Mustangs to an 11th place finish at the national meet after completing the 10K course in 30:31.2, good for 33rd place overall. A year ago, Reid finished 21st overall for his All-America honor. Reid's All-America honor was the third back-to-back award he takes home in his final season. He also collected consecutive Big West Athlete of the Year awards and won the conference individual championship two years in a row.

The All-America awards are given to the top 25 American-born finishers at the NCAA meet.

On the men's side of the NCAA Championships, five-time defending Big West champion Cal Poly was the lone conference team in action. Following Reid for the Mustangs was Troy Swier (95th - 31:05.4), Matt Johnsrud (109th - 31:10.6), Evan Anderson (111th - 31:11.9) and Jeff Lease (114th - 31:14.2). The conference also had an at-large qualifer on the men’s side as UC Riverside's Ulices Pina earned entry into the field. Pina finished 101 in the field of 250, completing the 10K in 31:08.0.

The women's side of the NCAA meet saw UC Santa Barbara earn a spot in the 31-team competition. The Gauchos finished 19th among the NCAA elite, led by Bethany Nickless who finished with a time of 21:10.0 on the 6K course. Following Nickless for the Gauchos was Megan Lewis (68th - 21:19.9), Danielle Domenichelli (101st - 21:32.5), Liza Hitchner (143rd - 21:51.1) and Breanne Strenkowski (211th - 22:34.1). UC Riverside also placed an at-large qualifer in the race as Brenda Martinez competed in the field of 253. She finished 138th with a time of 21:02.84.
