NEW ORLEANS, La. -- For the third consecutive week, MSU Moorhead women's track & field has found themselves ranked in the USTFCCCA Poll. The Dragons are ranked 25th in the country according to USTFCCCA while MSUM's men's team is slotted at 10th in the latest Central Region rankings. 

MSUM's women dropped three spots from last week to 25th, garnering 30.53 points in the poll. Minnesota State remains in the top spot in the national rankings with Winona State (9) and Concordia-St. Paul (20) rounding out the NSIC representation in the poll. In the latest USTFCCCA regional rankings, the Dragons are listed at 17th, registering 47.85 points in the Central Region.

The Dragons were led by strong performances from Ashley Hokanson and Robynn Rolle-Curry at last weekend's Bison Open. Rolle-Curry won the 400m while Hokanson reset her own school record in the pole vault. The record-breaking performance garnered NSIC Field Athlete of the Week honors for the sophomore. 

On the men's side, the Dragons moved up to the number 35 ranking in the national poll after being listed at 36 a week prior. However, MSUM is ranked 10th in the latest Central Region rankings tallying 113.85 points to come in one spot higher than fellow NSIC member Concordia-St. Paul.

Braxton Bruer, Shyrone Kemp and Thomas Kern all picked up event wins for the Dragons at the Bison Open. Bruer nearly reset his own school in the 800m, winning the event and NSIC Track Athlete of the Week honors. Kemp won the triple jump once again while Kern won the men's 400m with a time of 49.16, the eighth fastest time in school history. 

MSUM is back in action this weekend with a pair of meets. The Dragons will be competing at the SDSU Indoor Classic in Brookings, S.D. and the Minnesota State Massive Meet in Mankato, Minn., this Friday and Saturday.
