NEW ORLEANS - Chelsea Walker has been named to the 2020 NCAA Division II Indoor Track and Field All-American Team by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association.
The York, England native earned the honor in the 60 meter hurdles and the 200 meters.
Normal policies dictate that All-America honors are awarded based on classifications of performance at the NCAA Championships.
Due to the cancellation of the NCAA Division II Indoor Track & Field Championships, the Executive Committee adopted the following criteria:
- Based on the posted startlist for the national championships announced by the NCAA, the following will be recognized as All-America for the 2020 indoor track & field season:
- Individual events: ALL student-athletes listed on the startlist for the anticipated event.
- Relay events: The four student-athletes per anticipated relay who produced the performance that was declared and accepted into their event.
- There will not be a distinction of "first-team" or "second-team" to these recognitions.
Walker was also named Gulf South Conference Indoor Track Athlete of the Year. At the GSC Championships, she won the 60 hurdles, the 60 meter and the 200 meter races. She was also named a Buc Scholar for her performance in the classroom.
