In the second regular-season NCAA Division II National Team Computer Rankings released on Tuesday (Feb. 3) by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA), both Ashland University indoor teams are ranked second in the country.
Last week, the Eagle women were second in the country, and the AU men were third.
Through the weekend, the two Ashland indoor track and field teams have combined for eight automatic national-qualifying efforts and 22 provisional national-qualifying showings.
The Eagles will be back in action at the Akron Blue/Gold meet on Friday and Saturday (Feb. 6-7).
