Patrick et. al.,

As many of you know, the first ever Collegiate Cross Natz. will be happening
at SeaTac this coming Dec. 7 in conjunction with USCF Sr. Nats. I have been
working with Kathy Volski (NCCA, SW Conf. Dir) in regards to the NCCA side of
things. Since this is the first ever coll. cross natz, we are treating this
as a "test race," hoping to get plenty of feedback. For the collegiate side
of things, there will be a Men's and Women's category - no classes. There is
no regulation in regards to using a pure cross bike or a MTB bike for the 
event. The field is unlimited and there is NO team overall. However, the
individual winner (men and women's cat) will be awarded a Stars and Stripes
jersey. Medals will also be awarded to the Top 5 finishers and nominated as
All-Americans. BTW, the race is 45min. long.

For those of you newcomers who are interested in possibly racing for the
Huskies at Coll. Cross Natz, the only "legal" paperwork you need is for
you to get an NCCA License. One-Day licenses will not be available for
the event.

If you would like to see what cross is all about, consider volunteering
as corner marshalls. Send email to Jeff at jnachtig@u.washington.edu
