Earlier this week, the Division II Indoor Track & Field Rating Index had both men's and women's teams ranked in the top six of the national polls. The men stayed steady at No. 6 while the women moved up two spots from No. 4 to No. 2, their highest ranking in indoor track, ever.
The squads will look to improve on their already impressive marks for the NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships which are scheduled for March 13 and 14 in Birmingham, Alabama.
The women have three automatic and 17 provisional marks and eight top-10 marks while the men have three automatic qualification marks and 11 provisional marks with seven of those in the top-10.
