The Tiffin University men's cross country team has been ranked regionally in the preseason by the U.S Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA).
The Dragons checked in at number 9 and it's the first time since 2012 that Tiffin has been ranked in the preseason.
Regional Rankings are determined subjectively by a single member coach in each respective region. The regional representative is tasked with weighing returning teams' strength with current season results (if applicable) in determining a rank-order of squad potential. Only USTFCCCA member programs are eligible to receive a ranking. Teams with provisional status within the region may be ranked.
Regional Championships Saturday is set for Saturday, November 8.
The Dragons open the season at home this Friday, September 5 at the Paradiso Athletic Complex. The women's race is slated for 6:00pm with the men scheduled to run at 6:45pm.
