According to the USTFCCA website, the organization compiles its national team rankings by "mathematical formulae based on national descending order lists and data taken from previous seasons. For the preseason ranking and early-season rankings, data will be taken from previous seasons as well as the current season. The purpose and methodology of the rankings is to create an index that showcases the teams that have the best potential of achieving the top spots in the national-team race."
Both Lincoln teams will compete in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association Outdoor Track & Field Championships from April 3-5 at Fort Hays State University in Hays, Kan.
