USTFCCCA D3 TOP 30 POLL - 10-21-26

After an impressive weekend showing, the Calvin women's cross country team has made a strong move up in the national rankings.

The Knights are ranked 16^th in this week's USTFCCCA Division III Top 30 poll released late this afternoon.

The ranking is a move up of three spots for the Knights after holding the No. 19 position a week ago.

Led by head coach Nicole Kramer, the Knights had a big performance at the Augustana Interregional Invitational last Saturday in Rock Island, Illinois.

Competing in a field of 35 teams, Calvin finished in sixth place with a team score of 247 points. Calvin finished ahead of four nationally-ranked teams in 12^th-ranked Hope, 24^th-ranked Wartburg, 18^th-ranked John Carroll and 26^th-ranked Colorado College.

Senior Hailey Erickson was the top individual finisher for the Knights, placing 35^th in 21:54.

Calvin returns to action on October 31 when it competes at the MIAA Championships hosted by Albion College.
