WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. -- Four members of the Wake Forest women's indoor track team have earned All-America honors. The four include Amy Harding-Delooze, Cydney Delley, Aleeya Hutchins and Johanna Schulz, all members of the women's distance medley relay team that won the ACC Championship in March and qualified for the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships.
The NCAA meet, slated to be held in Albuquerque in late March, was canceled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association has adapted its policies regarding All-Americans and will award that honor to all members of the relay team who qualified for the national meet.
The distance medley relay team won the ACC Championship on February 27 with a school record time of 11:08.40. The distance medley relay is a 4,000 meter race with each runner competing at a different distance. Wake Forest's team consisted of Harding-Delooze running the opening 1200m, followed by Delley at 400m, Hutchins at 800m and senior Johanna Schulz anchoring the squad by going the final 1600m.
Wake Forest edged Virginia Tech by .01 at the ACC Championship on Feb. 27 at Notre Dame. The win marked the first ACC Championship in the DMR for the Wake Forest women since 2001.
"It is always an honor to be named All American," said Wake Forest head coach John Hayes. "These four young women worked extremely hard and now get a chance to add All-American to the ACC Championship they earned in February. We will have three of the four (Amy, Cydney and Aleeya) returning for indoor competition in 2021 and Johanna will return for the outdoor season. Coach (Andrew) Ferris and Coach (Gray) Horn did a tremendous job of getting them prepared to compete at their highest level when it counted."
The four track honorees brings Wake Forest's total of first team All-Americans in 2019-20 to 10. The four join football's Nick Sciba, men's soccer's Bruno Lapa, women's golf's Emilia Migliaccio and Rachel Kuehn, and the women's tennis doubles team of Eliza Omirou and Mary Caroline Meredith.
