The season ended last weekend in Oostmalle, and now the UCI cyclocross rankings are set in stone for the season. In the men’s field, World Cup overall winner Lars Van der Haar topped the rankings scale—not bad for a racer who’s barely out of U23! Behind him was Sven Nys, followed by Niels Albert. On the American side of things, Jeremy Powers came in at 15th and Tim Johnson followed in 21st with Ryan Trebon close behind in 26th. Jonathan Page also made the top 40 in 34th.
In the women’s rankings, Katie Compton was unsurprisingly on top, followed by bronze medalist at Worlds Helen Wyman and re-crowned World Champion Marianne Vos. American Elle Anderson almost made the top 10, coming in at 11th, with teammate Meredith Miller close behind in 14th and Kaitie Antonneau in 15th. Crystal Anthony was 20th, Arley Kemmerer was 31st and Nicole Duke was 37th—that’s seven American women in the top 40 for UCI points.
