NEW ORLEANS – The University of Sioux Falls Men's Cross Country Team, which recorded its best season in school history in 2018, has been ranked No. 11 in the United States Track and Field/Cross Country Coaches Association Week 2 Coaches Poll, which was released Wednesday (Sept. 25). USF jumped one spot dropping to No. 12 in the USTFCCCA Week 1 Poll.

USF, which was recently ranked No. 5 in NCAA DII by the Flo Track website, was short-handed and finished fourth in the team standings at the Augustana Invitational on Sept. 6.
