2024 NJCAA Women’s Indoor Track & Field Rating Index – Week 2
NEW ORLEANS – While New Mexico JC remains No. 1, some shifting and a new name are evident in the top-5 of the Week 2 edition of the NJCAA Women’s Indoor Track & Field National Rating Index, as released Wednesday by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA).
Iowa Western CC leapfrogged Barton (Kan.) CC for the No. 2 position, while Salt Lake (Utah) CC made history with it’s first-ever top-5 ranking. No marks from previous seasons have been used, which means this objective list is compiled solely of current marks from the 2024 indoor track & field season.
