NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA — There was no movement in the second USTFCCCCA Outdoor Checkpoint of the season for the Central College men's track and field teams as it stayed at No. 19.
The Dutch women fell out of the top 25, dropping to No. 28.
Points in the National Team Rating Index are based off placement in the National Descending Order Lists. The higher an athlete sits on the top-50 list, the more points he or she adds to his or her team's total. These points do not reflect placement or scoring at the NCAA Championships but are to show the individuals and teams that have the best chances at scoring well at said meet.
Kale Hobart (junior, Mason City) added two new marks for Central in the 110-meter hurdles (No. 23 – 14.65 seconds) and the pole vault (No. 36 - 15 feet, 0 inches).
The Dutch men are led by three entries in the top five nationally.
