Franklin Pierce University's Men's Track and Field team, featuring Ryan Outerbridge, has been projected to finish third in the 2025 Northeast-10 (NE10) Outdoor Track & Field Preseason Coaches' Poll. The announcement, made by the league office, reflects the high expectations for the team this season.
The preseason rankings were determined by votes from the conference's head coaches, providing an indication of how the team is viewed by their peers. A third-place projection suggests that Franklin Pierce is expected to be a strong contender in the NE10 this year.
The men's team enters the 2025 outdoor season on the back of a successful 2024 campaign. Last season, they finished as NE10 Outdoor Championship runners-up, demonstrating their competitiveness within the conference.
Key to their success is the return of several talented athletes. Stephen Harris, who was named NE10 Track Most Outstanding Performer and Championship MVP last season, will be a crucial figure for the team. Alongside Harris, Ryan Outerbridge is set to compete in his final outdoor season, bringing experience and leadership to the squad.
The combination of returning talent and past success has generated significant anticipation for the Franklin Pierce Men's Track and Field team. The third-place preseason ranking suggests that the coaches in the NE10 expect them to be a major force in the conference this season.
