2018 Domestic Cyclocross Rankings

Compton Back On Top—But For How Long?

Nationals is going to be lit this weekend for the American women. 

Can Katie Compton make it to 15 wins? 

Will Ellen Noble finally win one of the big title races? (She's came so close at Nationals last season and at this year's Pan-Ams.) 

Or will Kaitie Keough surprise the crowd with a dominant ride? She's the only racer who's won a World Cup this season, and she had great rides at NBX after a tough mid-season.

Even the top 5 could have huge variety, with Courtenay McFadden recovered and crushing, and Sammi Runnels having a killer season. 

In the U23 race, it seems to be Clara Honsinger versus Katie Clouse, and both girls would have a good chance of a solid result in the elite field, honestly.  

(Before we dive in, a reminder that the rankings are based on UCI ranking, racing trends this season, and plenty of subjective intel, wild speculation, Instagram Stories and industry gossip.)
