MINNEAPOLIS - The Minnesota Gophers women's cross country team remained at No. 10 in the USTFCCCA National Coaches' Poll this week, as was announced by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association Tuesday.
Minnesota was once again the second-highest ranked school in the Big Ten, falling just behind Michigan State (sixth), and leading Michigan (11th), Indiana (19th), Illinois (21st), Wisconsin (28th), Ohio State (RV) and Purdue (RV).
Regionally, the women retained their first place ranking amongst the Midwest Region, with Oklahoma State, Iowa State, Illinois and Northwestern filling in the remaining top-five spots. The men dropped in this week's regional rankings to sixth.
The Gophers saw action this past weekend at the St. Olaf Invitational, where freshman Emmet Anderson (UA) and sophomore Ava Hill led the Gophers with third and eighth place finishes, respectively. They will continue their 2021-22 season this Friday, Sept. 24 at the 35th Annual Roy Griak Invitational, hosted by Minnesota at Les Bolstad Golf Course.
