LAKEWOOD, CO- The Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) announced their selections for Track & Field First Team Academic All-Conference on Thursday, and Matthew Storer and Shannon King both earned the distinction for their work in the classroom and on the track. 

Storer boasted a 3.71 Grade Point Average in Business during his undergraduate studies and currently holds a 4.0 as he works towards his MBA. Matt had another stellar season as he made the NCAA National Championships in the 5k during the indoor season and made his third straight appearance at Nationals in the 10k during the outdoor season. The honor marks the second straight season Storer has been named to the First Team for his academic and athletic prowess.
