BOWLING GREEN, Ohio – The Bowling Green women's cross country team soared into the Great Lakes Region Cross Country Coaches' Rankings, released by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association, on Monday (Nov. 1). The Falcons received a 15th place ranking in the sixth and final poll of the season, which was released following multiple conference championships over the weekend.
The Falcons' ranking comes after a stellar performance at the Mid-American Conference Championships on Saturday (Oct. 30). The Orange and Brown finished fourth in the Eastern Michigan-hosted meet and were led by two All-MAC performances from seniors Katerina Shuble and Sydney Niekamp. Both runners earned second-team honors after finishing 10th and 11th, respectively.
Bowling Green is one of four Mid-American Conference teams listed in this week's poll, including Toledo (4th), Miami (9th), and Akron (10th). Michigan, Wisconsin, and Michigan State, representing the Big Ten, hold the top three spots.
