Utah State’s men’s track and field and cross-country program finished 10th in the nation in this year’s NCAA Division I Men’s Program of the Year standings, it was announced Tuesday by the U.S. Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA).
“This is a fantastic result,” said first-year USU head cross-country coach Artie Gulden. “It represents another illustration of the great year we had with lots of consistency placing 27th, 28th and then 18th in the NCAA in the three seasons. This honor doesn’t come because of one or two guys; it takes an entire team.”
Utah State, which finished with 76 points, was one of two Mountain West men’s programs in the running for the Program of the Year Award.
