KANSAS CITY, Mo. -The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) announced the 2011 Men’s Cross Country All-Americans on Monday. The top-30 individual finishers at the 56th Annual NAIA Men’s Cross Country National Championships held Nov. 19 at the Fort Vancouver National Historic Site in Vancouver, Wash., were bestowed with the accolade.
Senior Seth Bridges (Anderson Island, Wash.) was named to the list after finishing 12th in the championships on Saturday in a field of 312 runners from 32 colleges and universities plus 105 at-large entries.
Oklahoma Christian’s Silas Kisorio headlines the honorees as the only four-time All-American. The senior from Eldoret, Kenya, placed 28th as a freshman and then stormed to the top as the national champion in 2009. During his junior and senior campaigns, he finished as runner-up.
