The men’s and women’s track and field teams were honored by the U.S. Track and Field and Cross County Coaches Association (USTFCCCA). Both teams were named to the 2010 USTFCCCA Division I All-Academic Track and Field Teams.

Allison Hawkey '11 led the women's team to a 3.33 grade-point average.

The USTFCCCA honors completed what was an already successful academic year for the program as the Leopards placed 46 on the Patriot League Honor Roll. The men’s squad was led by Nick Orzol ’13, an electrical and computer engineering major, posting a perfect 4.0 grade-point average (GPA) while Allison Hawkey ’11, an anthropology & sociology and history double major, led the way for the women’s team with a 3.92 GPA.

The men’s team finished with a 3.23 team GPA along with four other Patriot League schools while the women boasted a 3.33 GPA.
