New Week, Again New Number Ones: Florida, Texas Now Lead DI Rankings



May 1, 2012



NEW ORLEANS – For the second-straight week there are new number one men's and women's teams in the USTFCCCA NCAA Division I Outdoor Track & Field National Team Computer Rankings. Florida's men reclaimed the No. 1 spot from Texas A&M, but by a very slim margin. Similarly, Texas' women are now No. 1 by less than one ranking point ahead of last week's top team -- Clemson.



Three men's teams have more than 200 ranking points -- No. 1 Florida, No. 2 Texas A&M, and No. 3 Arizona State. The Sun Devils are at the No. 3 spot for the second-straight week. Southern California reached a season-high with a No. 4 ranking, up two spots from a week ago. Florida State stayed at No. 5 for the second time in a row. No. 8 Mississippi moved up three spots to reach a season best.



On the women's side, Texas took over No. 1 for the first time in the five years of ranking history. They and No. 2 Clemson are separated by less than a ranking point (286.74-286.22). In fact the top five teams are distanced by only 41 points as No. 3 Florida, No. 4 LSU, and No. 5 Kansas round out the top five.
