NEW ORLEANS- The United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) announced its 2011-12 Division I list of All-Academic Track and Field teams on Thursday, compiling a list that included the Marshall University women's track and field team as one of just 171 track and field programs to receive the accolade.

Institutions earned the distinction based on a cumulative team GPA of 3.0 or higher, and with a 2011-12 GPA of 3.02, Marshall managed to earn a place amongst the nation's top academic teams.
