UW-Oshkosh tops the National TFRI in Week 1 and justifiably so. The Titans own 11 national top-10 efforts this year, including Jonathan Wilburn’s national-leading effort of 15.15m (49-8½) in the triple jump. Wilburn is one of six top-5 athletes for UW-Oshkosh.

Loras is ranked second to begin the season. Mike Jasa is the only national leader for the Duhawks with his 1:48.78c effort in the 800 meters, but six other athletes combine for seven more national top-10 marks. Carter Oberfoell is right behind Jasa in the 800m at 1:50.40c.

A trio of national leaders has Williams sitting third. Jackson Anderson tops the nation in both the 60-meter hurdles (8.08c) and the heptathlon (5194), while Elias Lindgren leads the way in the 5000m (14:00.54). Two other Ephs rank among the top-10 in the 5000m, too.

UW-La Crosse opened its season in a big way this past weekend and is ranked fourth. The Eagles, competing at the inaugural Pat Healy Classic, notched five national top-10 marks, which includes a pair of national-leading performances in the guise of M-F National Athlete of the Week Sam Blaskowski in the 60m at 6.70c and Ethan Gregg in the 3000m at 8:04.31c.

SUNY Cortland finds itself fifth after the first month. The Red Dragons hold six national top-10 efforts, led by Isaiah Brunache (shot put) and Dane Sorensen (pole vault), who are both ranked third nationally in their respective events.

Here are the rest of the top-10 teams in Week 1: No. 6 Wartburg, No. 7 Nebraska Wesleyan, No. 8 SUNY Geneseo, No. 9 Mount Union and No. 10 MIT.

Mark your calendars for March 10-11, because that’s when the 2023 NCAA Division III Indoor Track & Field Championships will be held at the Birmingham Crossplex in Birmingham, Alabama.
