Sacramento, Calif. - The University of Tulsa finished its competition in the 2007 NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championships with Alex Becker earning All-America honors in the 5,000m, while Edwin Henshaw posted a 14th place finish in the men's side at the meet held in Sacramento, Calif.

Becker turned in a time of 16:00.34 to finish seventh in the 5,000m and earn her second All-American honor after matching the feat at the NCAA Indoor Championships earlier this season. Her time sets a new school record in the event as she becomes the first TU athlete to sweep All-American honors during the indoor and outdoor championships.

Henshaw posted a 14:08.59 to earn a 14th place finish in the final of the men's 5,000m. Henshaw challenged his current school record time, but fell just short.
