Alabama Track and Field Earns 26 Outdoor All-America Honors

A total of 10 Crimson Tide men earned 12 honors, while 10 UA women earned 14 accolades

Alabama track and field saw 20 student-athletes earn a total of 26 All-America honors for the 2022 NCAA Outdoor Track & Field season, the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) announced Monday.

A total of 10 Alabama men earned 12 certificates, led by Bobby Colantonio Jr., Isaac Odugbesan, Tarsis Orogot, Leander Forbes, Demetrius Jackson, Corde Long and Khaleb McRae, who all earned first-team recognition.

The Crimson Tide saw 10 women earn 14 All-America certificates, led by NCAA 10,000-meter champion Mercy Chelangat, who earned first-team honors in both the 5,000 meters and 10,000 meters for the second year in a row.

All-America accolades are based on finishes at the NCAA Outdoor Championships, where first through eighth place finishers earn first-team honors, while ninth through 16th earn second-team honors and 17th through 24th receive honorable-mention recognition.

As a team, Alabama's men finished the meet in 11th place, giving them their fifth consecutive top-15 finish at the outdoor championships, while the women took 15th, good for their third top-15 finish in a row.
