Normal policies dictate that All-America honors are awarded to student-athletes who score any portion of a team point at the NCAA Championships. In lieu of conduction of the national championship this season, which was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the NCAA Division III Executive Committee adopted the following criteria:
Based on the selected participants for the national championships initially announced by the NCAA on Sunday, March 8, the following will be recognized as All-America for the 2020 Indoor Track & Field season:
- Individual events: ALL student-athletes declared and initially accepted into their event.
- Relay events: Members of ALL relays who produced the performance that was declared and initially accepted into their event.
Braeden Smith (Erie, PA/Seneca) earned All-American honors in the high jump while Jack Georgetson (Aliquippa, PA/Hopewell) and Nick Lachut (Pittsburgh, PA/Baldwin) were recognized as All-American in the pole vault.
