Nov 10, 2011

We begin our sixth year of the PennTrackXC.com Top 10 - a poll of coaches from around the state to rank the top cross country teams of the season. One is reserved for the top five AA/Small schools, while the Top 10 reflects all PA schools, whether AA, AAA, public or private.

Again this year, we'll wait for two weekends of competition before making any adjustments – giving many of the teams an opportunity to get their first races under their spikes. Remember, this poll is for fun, and is intended solely to spark conversation about the sport. Once we're on a weekly schedule, the poll will be published on Wednesdays.
