Dylan Doss, a freshman from Illinois College, has been recognized with All-Region honors for the 2024 NCAA Division III Outdoor Track & Field season. This recognition comes from the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) after the regular season concluded.

Doss, hailing from Sterling, Illinois, was named to the Midwest Region team due to his performance in the long jump. He is set to compete in this event at the 2024 NCAA Division III Outdoor Championships at Doug Shaw Memorial Stadium in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

Currently ranked 17th nationally in the long jump, Doss achieved a season-best mark of 7.29 meters (23'11"), which stands as the second-best effort in Illinois College's history. Throughout both indoor and outdoor seasons, he was a runner-up in the Midwest Conference long jump and received All-Region honors after the indoor season as well.

The criteria for earning All-Region honors include being among the top five individuals in each event from each region or being part of a top-three relay team.
