NEW ORLEANS, La. – With only two provisional marks last weekend, Colorado School of Mines men's outdoor track and field fell three positions to No. 13 in the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) Division II National Team Computer Rankings.

The men were supplanted by four teams outside the top-10, moving behind No. 12 Shippensburg (93.23 points) with a week-five total of 82.87. Ashland ascended 11 spots to No. 1 with 164.71 points, displacing two-time defending national champion Saint Augustine's (135.47) to No. 2.

Senior Austin Roup and junior Jacob Hollister comprised both provisional efforts at the Colorado Invitational in Boulder, spinning their fourth straight qualifying distances in the hammer throw.

Roup bettered Hollister's program record with the 10th-ranked provisional of 201-00 (61.28m) to place runner-up among 20 mostly Division I competitors. Hollister ended seventh at 187-07 (57.19m).

Sophomore Patrick Weaver paced six Orediggers in the top-10 of the 400, timing fourth of 27 in 48.40.
