STANDINGS

NEW ORLEANS, La.- Following the completion of the 2021-22 cross country and indoor track and field seasons, the Queens University of Charlotte women's track & field team ranks third in the USTFCCCA DII Program of the Year Standings. The Royals have 16 points after finishing sixth at the NCAA Cross Country Championships and 10th at the NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships. Queens' men are ranked 17th after finishing 20th at the cross country championships and 44th at the indoor championships.

The USTFCCCA Program of the Year Award honors the institution that has achieved the most success in each academic year (spanning the cross country, indoor track & field and outdoor track & field seasons) based on the institution's finish at the NCAA Championships.

In order to be eligible for the award, teams must qualify for each of the NCAA Championships. Scoring is based on the team's finish at each NCAA Championship in cross country, indoor track & field and outdoor track & field (i.e. 1st = 1 point, 2nd = 2 points … 31st = 31 points) with the lowest total score for all three championships combined determining the award winner. Ties among schools split points for positions taken.

Queens will be back in action this weekend with members of the teams competing at the Raleigh Relays and the Winthrop Invite.
