BYU cross-country: Women's team shares first with San Francisco in WCC Preseason Poll

BYU and defending West Coast Conference champion San Francisco have been picked by the 10 head coaches to share this year’s WCC Cross Country title after each earned 77 total votes and five first-place votes.

It was a banner year in 2017 for the WCC, with a pair of top-15 finishes at NCAA Nationals on the women’s side. San Francisco secured its first West Regional, while BYU took third in the Mountain Regional. Both squads then followed that up with stellar performances in Louisville, as BYU finished 11th and the Dons raced to the podium for a second-place finish.
