Women's Cross Country 2nd in the Nation; Men's 6th
The United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) released their week two rankings and both of Emory Oxford cross country teams were ranked. The women's team was ranked #2 in the nation, while the men were sixth.
This is the first time the women's team has been ranked since 2019 and it is the highest ranking in program history. Initially, the Eagles were unable to score at team events due to not having enough runners. However, this past weekend at the Alexander/Asics Invitational, the Eagles added more runners. Julia Danko was one of these runners and she was recently named National Athlete of the Week by the USTFCCCA.
The men's team moved up two spots ahead to #6.
Both teams will be competing in the Bobcat Invitational this Saturday in Milledgeville, GA. Races are set to begin at 8:00 AM.
