NEW ORLEANS, La. - The UW-Eau Claire men's cross country team was honored today with two athletes being named to the NCAA Division III All-Academic Team by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA).

Jules Miller (Sr.-Green Bay, Wis./East) and Tom Breitbach (So.-Muskego, Wis.) both received recognition on the team.

The award honors those student-athletes who have succeeded both academically and athletically. To be eligible for the award a student-athlete must carry a minimum 3.5 cumulative grade point average and must finish in the top 25 percent of the field at their respective NCAA regional meet.

Miller, a public communications major with a 3.53 GPA, competed in six different events this season and had his best time at the WIAC Championships. He completed the race with a time of 25:04, taking 10th place overall.
