NEW ORLEANS – Senior Miranda Stanhope and junior Jordyn Henderson were named 2024 Sun Belt All-Conference selections, the league announced on Thursday afternoon.

Stanhope picked up All-Conference Second Team status after finishing runner-up in the 3,000-meter race (9:30.99) and third in the 5,000-meter (16:42.89). The Kinsman, Ohio native has picked up four medals across the last two indoor seasons, being named to the conference's second team in 2023 as well.

Henderson was named All-Conference Third Team with a bronze finish in the 60-meter hurdles with a school-record time of 8.30. The third-place effort marked her first time medaling at a Sun Belt Championship meet. With her performances during the indoor season, Henderson holds the JMU record in the 60-meter hurdles (8.30) and tied for seventh in the 60-meter dash (7.57), to go along with her No. 2 program time of 13.78 in the 100-meter hurdles in the outdoor season.
