2024 NJCAA DI Men’s Outdoor Track & Field Rating Index – Week 5

NEW ORLEANS – Here is the Week 5 edition of the 2024 NJCAA Division I Men’s Outdoor National Track & Field Rating Index, which was released Wednesday by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA). Only marks from the 2024 outdoor track & field season have been used for this objective list.

Co-defending champion South Plains (Texas) – which has had at least a share of the last three national outdoor titles – is No. 1 for a fourth-straight week, with Iowa Western CC the nearest pursuer.
