NEW ORLEANS – The U.S. Track & Field and Cross-Country Coaches Association released the third edition of the national rankings for the 2024 indoor season on Monday. The LSU women moved up two spots to No. 10, while the men dropped three to No. 17.
The lone Tiger to reach a top-10 mark in this week’s TFRRS list was Leah Phillips. Every week this season Phillips has been finishing alongside the nation leader for the 60-meter hurdles in Alia Armstrong.
The Port Tobacco, Md., native recorded a prelims’ time of 8.12 seconds, and then she quickly followed it up with a time of 7.99, which converts to 8.01 seconds to place second in the final at the New Mexico Collegiate Classic. Her time moved her up to fourth in the nation after previously sitting at seventh with a time of 8.09 entering the weekend.
