The Tiger women's cross country team moved up five spots to No. 17 in this week's NAIA poll. Doane is coming off a strong showing at the NAIA Mid-States Classic in which they placed second overall. They will rest this week in preparation for the GPAC Championship on November 8 in Hastings.
Doane also moved to the top spot among GPAC squads, vaulting ahead of Concordia after they were beaten this past weekend by Morningside. The Mustangs enter the poll this week at No. 23; they were receiving votes last week. Concordia slips from No. 13 to No. 24. Hastings College and Dordt College continue to receive votes.
