Every NCAA D1 Cross Country Championship Men's Team Since 1938

Northern Arizona Men’s Cross Country will attempt to win its seventh NCAA Division I Cross Country Championship since 2016 in 2023 as the Lumberjacks have become a cross country power over the last decade. 

A championship win for the Lumberjacks would be the first four-peat since Arkansas did it from 1990-1993. The Razorbacks have won a total of 11 national championships, but none since 2000. 

The 2023 Men’s Division I Cross Country Championships are Nov. 18 in Charlottesville, Virginia at Panorama Farms. 

Here’s a look at all the team champions since 1938.
