The Spartan cross country program held their ground in the week 5 USTFCCCA Regional polls. The women remain in the 6th spot in the East Region while the men stayed in the 10 spot.  The rankings follow a week where the teams did not compete in a NCAA competition.  STAC ran in the Annual Spartan Alumni Run which does not count towards official times and standings.  The teams jumped back into the polls in week 5 after stellar performances at the NJIT Highlander Technology Challenge on October 6th.
