Curious what the confusion was all about... Lady Ducks smoked Providence the 2nd place finisher by 70 points.

This explains the tweets that the Ducks were protesting the results.
"Initially, the Ducks' first title in 25 years wasn't quite as easy as it ended up being. Due to a timing error in the results, Providence was initially credited with the win. Almost immediately, it became apparent that Pappas and other runners had been omitted from the final standings. After about 30 minutes the results were corrected and Ducks were indeed the national champions.
"It was a bit of a rollercoaster there," said Conlon. "But we knew we ran a good, strong race. It was kind of a shock when they said we didn't win, but now, we're good. I guess never really let myself think about winning a national championship. It's pretty amazing."
