YSCC proud to announce the Women's Cross Country Twin Decades Team
(YSCC) - Getting closer to our final Yankee Small College Conference Twin Decades team announcement. Not quite the last, but we are so proud to announce our Women's Cross Country Twin Decades Team.
The league has selected 20 of the best female runners since the inception of the league in 2005. This group includes a United States Collegiate Athletic Association (USCAA) National Chamnpion.
YSCC President Matt Richards congratulates these student-athletes and their impact on the YSCC.
"The former student athletes named to the twin decade cross country team exemplify the very best of our conference sport offering. Their success achieved on the course was truly amazing and their naming to the twin decades team is fitting for the outstanding effort they displayed."
The YSCC continues to recognize the contributions our amazing student/athletes have made to the conference and the schools since 2005. We are proud to continue presenting our Twin Decades teams in all of our competitive sports.
