Graham Finishes 11th, Earns Second All-America Award

May 25, 2019

KINGSVILLE, Texas  - Junior Javon Graham registered a time of 14.28 seconds on the way to an 11th place finish in the 110-meter Hurdles on Friday evening at the NCAA Division II Outdoor Track & Field Championships.
 
Although not advancing to Saturday's finals of the event, Graham will pick up second team all-America honors from the United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (ISTFCCCA) with the performance. He becomes the first UNCP student-athlete in 45 years (David Phillips, Long Jump, 1974) to earn all-America honors in both the Indoor and Outdoor Track & Field seasons.
 
Student-athletes will earn first team all-America honors by virtue of finishing among the top-8 in their events, including as a member of a relay, at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships. Second team all-America honors are for those student-athletes who finished ninth through 12th in their individual events, or on a relay team that finished ninth or 10th.
 
Graham became the first UNCP indoor track & field student-athlete in 44 years to pick up all-America honors at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships after finishing 11th in the 60-meter Hurdles in March.
