Gopher Women's Track Ranked #15

When the University of Minnesota's women's track team opens the season on January 12, they'll do so as the #15 team in the nation.

The U.S. Cross Country and Track and Field Coaches Association pre-season poll ranks the defending Big 10 indoor champions as the third-best team in the conference, behind #4 Michigan and #12 Penn State.

LSU tops the poll followed by Arizona State and Tennessee.

Florida State tops the men's poll followed by Washington and Tennessee. Defending Big 10 indoor and outdoor champs Wisconsin is the only ranked conference men's team -- at #15.

The Gopher teams open the 2008 season at home with the Northwest Open at the University Fieldhouse.
