All American Performances


The tradition of Tufts Track and Field and Cross Country includes countless Jumbos who have donned brown and blue for the team over the years. Athletes of all ability levels have brought a great level of pride and camaraderie to the team. Each year every Jumbo strives for his best performance. For certain individuals, this includes representing Tufts at the national championship meet. The number of athletes that have represented Tufts at the NCAA Indoor, Outdoor, and Cross Country National Championships is literally in the hundreds. Among those lucky enough to compete for Tufts on the national stage, the following athletes distinguished themselves with All American honors at their respective championship meets.
