Taylor Men Ranked No. 3 in NAIA Preseason Poll

NAIA Preseason Top-25 Poll

UPLAND, Ind. – The NAIA Preseason Top-25 was released this week, with the Trojan men being voted No. 3 to begin the 2025 season.

The Trojans finished strong last year, with an eighth place showing at the NAIA National Championships, fueled by NAIA All-American Luke Harber.  

Harber spearheads a squad that returns all of its top ten runners from a year ago. Ryan Hanak and Joel Mumaw were All-Crossroads League performers, while Alex Ortiz finished 74th at the NAIA National Championships.   

Joining the team this season are three freshmen eager to contribute to the excellent program that has flourished under Head Coach Quinn White. 

The Crossroads League boasts four top-ten squads, with No. 5 Marian, No. 6 Spring Arbor, and No. 8 Indiana Wesleyan following behind the Trojans. No. 21 Goshen is the final league team in the polls to begin the year.

The Trojans begin the season on Friday, September 5, at the Indiana Wesleyan Twilight Invitational at 6:40 pm.
