GREENVILLE, S.C. -- The National Christian College Athletic Association has released the latest NCCAA Top 10 rankings and cross country times, and the Men's Cross Country and Women's Volleyball squads have both retained their ranking.

Men's Cross Country reported the third-fastest time in Division II with an improved time at the Bethel Invitational in South Bend, Indiana. Every runner reported their best time of the season, led by David Cheloudtchenko, who clocked a time of 30:17 in the men's 8K. On that day, the team ran their season-best time of 2:39:15 in the competitive meet.

Meanwhile, Women's Volleyball retains its #10 ranking after going 4-3 since the previous ranking was released. Maranatha took a straight-set loss at home to Emmaus on October 3rd, and that result helped the Eagles climb to ninth in the latest poll. On the season, Maranatha holds a 12-11 record.

The complete top 10 can be found here (Women's Volleyball) and here (Men's Cross Country).
