NEW ORLEANS – Busy doesn’t even begin to describe this past weekend in NCAA Division I Women’s Cross Country. Every team that was ranked in the previous National Coaches’ Poll was in action, including those teams who also received votes, but didn’t earn enough points to be in the top-30.

What did that mean for this week’s poll when it was released Tuesday afternoon by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA)?

Hint: Lots and lots of movement.

Before there are any heart attacks, New Mexico is still the unanimous No. 1. How could the Lobos not be after steamrolling the field at the prestigiousWisconsin adidas Invitationalthis past Friday? New Mexico scored 32 points – nearly six times fewer than the second-place team – as its top-5 runners went 4-5-6-7-10.

While Michigan wasn’t as dominant at the Pre-National Invitational as the Lobos were in Madison, Wisconsin, the now-No. 2 Wolverines looked strong in their own right. Michigan won their third consecutive team title and knocked off four top-10 teams in the process – former No. 2 Colorado (now No. 3), former No. 4 Oregon(now No. 5), former No. 7 Georgetown (now No. 18) and former No. 9 Stanford (now No. 10).

So what about those other 19 ranked teams that ran into the buzz saw known as the Lobos at the adidas Invitational? Let’s not forget about that septet that competed alongside Michigan in Louisville, Kentucky either.

Going by last week’s rankings, there were three teams that put themselves in the national conversation last Friday in Madison, Wisconsin – Arkansas, Virginia and North Carolina State.

The young Razorbacks, led by senior Dominique Scott’s third-place showing and a breakthrough performance by freshman Devin Scott (18th), finished second behind New Mexico. Arkansas jumped from No. 11 to No. 4 in this week’s poll.

Behind the Razorbacks were the Cavaliers, who put three runners in the top-30 (Cleo Boyd, Iona Lake,Megan Rebholz), one of just two teams to do that (Bet you can guess the other). Virginia surged 10 spots in this week’s poll, going from No. 17 to No. 7. This is the Cavaliers’ first time ranked in the top-8 in program history.

And the Wolfpack finished fourth despite a less-than-stellar race by two-time National Athlete of the WeekRyen Frazier (38th). Samantha George (13th) was the low stick for NC State. The Wolfpack are now ranked No. 8, which marks their first time in the top-10 since 2006.

Just like that trio, Mississippi State pulled off a bit of an upset of its own this past weekend – but at the Pre-National Invitational. The Bulldogs finished fifth and were just three points behind the Cardinal in fourth. Mississippi State rocketed from receiving votes to No. 13, the first time it has ever been ranked in program history.

The Bulldogs are one of five teams jumping into the poll after dancing on the outside for a while. Mississippi State is joined on the dance floor by No. 19 Utah, No. 25 Columbia, No. 27 Weber State and No. 30 Purdue. This is the first time that the Utes and Boilermakers have been ranked in the National Coaches’ Poll.

After the busy weekend, most – if not, all – of these teams will take off in preparation for their conference championship meet in two weeks. Then two weeks after that, they’ll all converge for regionals and soon after, the NCAA Division I Cross Country Championships at E.P. “Tom” Sawyer Park.
