We welcome the over 250 competitors to Branson, Missouri as we crown four National Champions this weekend. Our prayer is that everything that takes place during this event will bring honor to Christ via our conduct, competition, and service to others. Sincere thanks and gratitude are given to Jason Covarrubias, DI Cross Country Chair from Southwestern Assemblies of God University, and Gerry Verwey, DII Cross Country Chair from Grace Christian University, for their excellent leadership during this season as we prepared for these events. We are most thankful to Dr. Jerry Davis, President of College of the Ozarks, along with Steve Shepherd, Chris Larsen, Dori Rapinchuk, and the entire Bobcats athletic department for the hundreds of hours given in hosting this event. This year will see the continued growth of our Christian Service Project program at each championship and the broadening of the NCCAA brand within all the constituencies of the association.
