Cross Country Release - Sept. 18

2001 CONFERENCE USA CROSS COUNTRY
(September 18, 2001)

C-USA ATHLETES OF THE WEEK

In light of the Sept. 11 national tragedy, Conference USA had a limited sports schedule from Sept. 11-16. Therefore, there will not be a Player of the Week Honoree for the period ending Sept. 16.

The entire Conference USA family extends its thoughts and prayers to all of those affected by the horrific cleanup and rescue tragedies that occurred on September 11. To those working tirelessly in the efforts in New York, Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C., we extend a heartfelt thank you. To those in the Government and military whose job it is to serve and protect America, our trust and prayers are with you, also. God bless all of you and God Bless America.
