Tiffin University's men's cross country team is ranked 30th in the nation in the latest USTFCCCA poll.

This marks the first time that the men's cross country program has been nationally ranked since 2012.

Colorado School of Mines sat atop the poll followed by Wingate and Adams State. Walsh (26th) and Ashland (27th) were also just ahead of Tiffin amongst G-MAC schools.

Tiffin University's men's cross country team also recently rose to 6th in the USTFCCCA Midwest Region poll.

The ranking marks the highest regional ranking for the Dragons in 15 years and is a leap of three spots from last week's 9th-place mark.

Tiffin opened its season with a win at the Tiffelberg Open and subsequently finished 10th at the Lucian Rosa Invitational and 12th at the Lewis Invitational. They will next compete at the G-MAC Championships on Oct. 25.
