STANFORD, Calif. - Chris Derrick has accomplished just about everything at Stanford and now begins the championship run in his final season of cross country. The senior from Naperville, Ill., will look to win the Pac-12 title and lead Stanford to its third consecutive conference crown on Saturday in Tempe, Ariz. Derrick won the 2009 Pac-10 individual title and finished runner-up to Elliott Heath last season.

Football
Tight end Coby Fleener and right guard David DeCastro earned first-team spots on Sports Illustrated's Midseason All-America team, which was released earlier this week. Fleener, a top contender for the Mackey Award, leads the Cardinal with seven touchdown receptions and is averaging 22.6 yards per catch. He is making a serious run at Stanford's single-season record for reception yards per catch, set by Miles Moore, who caught 38 passes for 816 yards (21.5) in 1971. The NCAA single-season record for receiving yards average among tight ends is held by Jay Novacek, who averaged 22.6 yards for Wyoming in 1984. DeCastro has led a stout offensive line that has allowed the fewest sacks in the nation while paving the way for a Cardinal ground game to average 219.4 yards. Quarterback Andrew Luck was named to the second team.

Stanford has won a school-record 15 straight games dating back to last season, which is the longest winning streak in the nation. During the streak, the Cardinal has outscored its opposition 641-207 (plus-434) and has scored 40 or more points in 10 of the 15 games. The Cardinal's current stretch of success also matches the longest unbeaten streak in school history (15 games), which was set over three seasons from 1925-27. Under the direction of the legendary Pop Warner, Stanford won its last two games of the 1925 season, posted a 10-0-1 record in 1926 and won its first two games of 1927 before losing to Saint Mary's. Rankings: No. 4 (AP), No. 3 (USA Today), No. 6 (BCS). Records: 7-0 overall, 5-0 Pac-12.
