PREDICTIONS: 2025 ACC Indoor Championships


Rejoice! We have finally reached the postseason for the 2025 indoor track season. And what better way to kick-off the onslaught of championship races than with TONS of conference meets taking place all around the country?
Below, we offered our predictions (top-five) for the ACC Indoor Championships, arguably the deepest conference meet in the country for middle and long distance runners. However, because we are trying to pump out as many sets of pre-race predictions as we can this weekend (for those that we have entries for), we won't be offering any analysis.
Here is who The Stride Report has thriving at the ACC Indoor Championships in the coming days...
