NCAA Cross Country Pre-Season Regional Rankings are Out




The United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coach's Association (USTFCCCA) has posted its NCAA Regional Rankings in Cross Country. As shown below, the Villanova men are ranked #2 in the Mid-Atlantic Region, and the Villanova Women are #1 in the August 30 poll. Villanova, Princeton, and Georgetown are, as usual, the cream of the crop on both sides. No national rankings are released by the USTFCCCA prior to the start of competition. In 2009, the Villanova men finished 11th at the national meet, while the Villanova women won their 8th NCAA cross country championship, more than any other program.
