Minnesota State climbed back into the No. 1 spot after spending last week at No. 2.

Grand Valley State slid one spot to No. 2 in Week 5. The Lakers have tallied nine national top-10 marks this season, including the national lead in the weight throw by Judith Essemiah (20.71m/67-11½). Klaudia O’Malley has a hand in three of those nationally ranked performances, as she is third in the mile (4:44.97), third in the 3000 (9:23.65) and part of the second-ranked DMR (11:31.14).

Azusa Pacific, West Texas A&M and Pittsburg State held steady at No. 3, No. 4 and No. 5, respectively. Each of those teams have at least seven top-10 national marks this season, with Azusa Pacific leading the group with 10. All of those teams also have a pair of national leaders: The Cougars are led by Mechaela Hyacynth in the 60 and Chinenye Agina in the high jump; The Lady Buffs are headlined by Taylor Nelloms in the triple jump and Zada Swoopes in the shot put; The Gorillas are paced by Christine Williams in the 200 and Trace Mosby in the pentathlon.

Here are the rest of the top-10 teams in Week 5: No. 6 Adams State, No. 7 Indianapolis, No. 8 CSU Pueblo, No. 9 Central Missouri and No. 10 UC-Colorado Springs.
