For even the most dedicated of Florida Gator fans, they probably glossed over what the women's cross country team did over the weekend. Florida XC traveled to Columbia, MO, and placed 1st in the Gans Creek Classic. The Gators beat notable distance running powers like Northern Arizona, Oregon, Colorado, Virginia, and Utah.
As a result, Florida XC is now ranked 3rd in the country in the latest USTFCCCA national poll.
And when one really thinks about it, the fact that Florida is able to field a cross country team that is ranked 3rd in the country while Gator Football flounders around highlights what a failure the Billy Napier Era has been.
