Returning a pair of All-SoCon runners in sophomore Natalie Atabek and senior Heather Conarroe, the Davidson Wildcats women's cross country team has been picked to finish fourth in the SoCon Cross Country Coaches Preseason Poll, as announced by the league office today.

The Southern Conference announced its Academic All-Conference team for the 2009 fall season Tuesday, which included honors for 23 Davidson student-athletes from the men’s and women’s cross country, men’s and women’s soccer and volleyball teams for their academic and athletic success. A record total of 316 student-athletes, representing all 12 Southern Conference institutions, were named to the team.

Once again led by freshman Natalie Atabek, the Davidson Wildcat women's cross country team finished in 17th place and first among Southern Conference schools at the NCAA Southeast Regionals, held Saturday morning at the University of Louisville's E.P. Sawyer Park.
