The UND women's track and field team has been named a 2009 Division I Women's All-Academic Track and Field Team by the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA).

UND combined for a 3.440 cumulative grade point average during the 2008-09 academic year, which ranked 12th among the 130 Division I teams honored by the USTFCCA.

To be nominated, teams must achieve a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.0.

Earlier this summer, UND placed nine student-athletes on the 2009 Great West All-Academic Winter/Spring Team, while juniors Brittany Brenny (Staples, Minn.) and Kristi Dahlheimer (Anoka, Minn.) earned ESPN the Magazine Academic All-District honors.
