ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Three University of New Mexico track & field student-athletes were named to the 2016 College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA) Academic All-District Track & Field/Cross Country District 7 Teams on Thursday.

Women's student-athletes Alice Wright and Sophie Connor joined men's student-athlete Yannick Roggatz in earning All-District honors, which increases UNM's total number of All-District recipients in the 2015-16 school year to 14 student-athletes.

It's the fifth-straight year New Mexico track & field/cross country has place at least one athlete on the Academic All-District team. Since 2012, the program has earned 14 Academic All-District selections.
