EUGENE, Ore. – Chance Cross competed on day two of the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships on Wednesday at Hayward Field.
In the 100m semifinal, Cross ran a time of 10.17 seconds to finish in 11th place. That time ranks fifth in program history. That finish earned him Second Team All-American honors. Cross finished his junior season with five of the fastest record times in program history.
Quotables
Director of Track and Field Cale McDaniel
“Chance is the fastest man to wear the Owl uniform, and he is one the best human beings as well! Such an outstanding person and competitor, we are all so proud of him and the season he has had. Chance Cross is one of a kind.”
Assistant Coach Paris Williams
“I couldn’t have asked more from Chance this year. Coming off of injuries the last two seasons and trusting in me my first year to do our best to get us to the NCAA Championships. He’s extremely coachable and always does the little things right. Anybody would be blessed to have him as their athlete, I’m so glad I get to do so. This is only the beginning!”

EUGENE, Ore. — Grand Canyon senior hurdler Cam Wilmington concluded his season in the semifinal round of the men’s 400-meter hurdles at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships on Wednesday evening at Hayward Field.
With the event narrowed down to just 24 competitors, the top nine finishers in Wednesday’s preliminary round advance to Friday’s final. Wilmington finished in 20th with a time of 51.57 seconds. Although he does not advance further into the meet, Wilmington earned All-American honorable-mention recognition for his finish in the nation’s top 24.
Under two weeks ago at the NCAA West First Round in College Station, Texas, Wilmington logged a personal best in the event with a time of 50.04. Days later, he ran a 50.12 to punch his ticket to Eugene. Either of those marks would have qualified for a top-nine finish. However, conditions in Eugene led to slower times across the board as only two of the event’s 24 entrants improved on their first-round marks.
Baylor’s Nathan Ezekiel cruised to the top time of the semifinal round with a mark of 47.86 that was over 1.2 seconds faster than the nearest competitor.
Wilmington ended a successful outdoor season that saw him make GCU history as the program’s first NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships qualifier in a men’s track event and 16th qualifier overall. He also was a WAC champion in the event.
