SPOKANE, Wash. -- Cody Stelzer has been selected to the ESPN The Magazine / CoSIDA Academic All-District VIII Men's Track & Field/Cross Country Team, the third straight year he has achieved the honor. Stelzer is a biology major with a 3.50 grade point average through January term. The senior from The Dalles, Oregon is now a three-time Academic All-District honoree and he now has a chance to become a three-time Academic All-American. Stelzer recently finished fourth in the high jump at the NCAA Division III Outdoor Track & Field Championships by clearing a height of 6'-10.25". He had previously won the Northwest Conference title in the same event for the fourth consecutive season and was an All-American at the 2010 NCAA Division III Indoor Track & Field Championships. Over the course of his four years at Whitworth, Stelzer competed in the high jump eight times at the NCAA Division III Championships (Indoor and Outdoor). He was an All-American eight times as was the 2008 national champion at the outdoor meet and 2009 national champion indoors. The Academic All-District VIII Track & Field/Cross Country teams included ten individuals each for men and women. The individuals are nominated by their institutions' sports information directors and the 10 selections are made by a subsequent vote of district SIDs. District VIII in the college division comprises all non-NCAA Division I institutions west of the Rocky Mountains. Go to Athletics Home Page > Track & Field > Sports Releases > |
