Chestnut Hill, Mass. – The women’s cross country team is ranked No. 16 in the NCAA Division I national coaches’ poll according to a release by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association yesterday.

The Eagles moved up one spot from their preseason ranking of No. 17 in light of their strong performance at the Minuteman Invitational on Sep. 13. In the Northeast Region, the Boston College women’s team remains at the top in the No. 2 spot, just behind top-ranked Syracuse—who placed third at ACC Championships and third at the regional last season.

The women’s cross country team races next at the Coast-to-Coast Battle in Beantown on Friday, Sep. 26 in Franklin Park, Mass.
