USAF ACADEMY, Colo. - Senior Riley Coates was named the Air Force Athlete of the Week on Monday morning (Nov. 17) after earning all-region honors at the NCAA Mountain Regional Cross Country Championships last Friday and qualifying to this week's NCAA National Championships.

Backed by a career-best 10K time of 30:20.93, Coates finished 19th in the 106-runner regional event, which was held in Albuquerque, N.M., on Nov. 14. That time, a personal-best by over 20 seconds, is the ninth-fastest 10K mark in recent Academy history. As one of the region's top four finishers not on an advancing team, the senior team captain earned a bid to the national meet.

The 2014 NCAA Championships will be held in Terre Haute, Ind., on Saturday (Nov. 22).
