2023 NCAA DI Men’s Outdoor Track & Field Rating Index – Week 5

NEW ORLEANS – It’s quiet … a little too quiet.

Here is the newest edition of the NCAA DI Men’s Outdoor Track & Field National Rating Index for the 2023 season, as released on Monday by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association. No marks from previous seasons are being used to calculate the National TFRI, which gives a truly objective look at the current campaign.
