How Many National Titles

I had no idea that Chinese exchange students were so fast!

Hardly. They had olympians on those teams from the Bahamas...

Derick Atkins took 2nd at the World Championships in '07.

Well, it looks like North Dakota colleges have many more national championships than South Dakota colleges.

Not sure but I think that Black Hills State won the team title in College rodeo a couple of times...(NIRA). Dickinson State has several top 5 finishes but never won it.

These teams also had olympians (juniors for sure) on these squads from Turkey to Columbia...They were amazing to watch!


Which makes me think why didn't they keep that recruiting up since they were so successful with it?
Now I'm baffled how they ended up there (DSU) to begin with and what kind of rules and regulations does the NCAA have on recruiting junior olympians and in general what Dickinson State did?
Wouldn't hurt to have future olympians on our track and volleyball team if it's possible at all...I have no clue on this matter.

Smarter people, you're up.

In ncaa athletics athletes are not allowed to compete in international events, while in naia athletics there is no such rule limiting the athletes from competition. In DSU's case, there are (were) some pretty state of the art athletic training programs and coaches these athletes would utilize to advance their athletic careers.
