Defending ACC Indoor 3000m champion Nicole Fegans is listed to return for her first indoor race since her championship run in South Bend last year. Junior pole vaulter Olivia Moore will likely lace it up for the first time in the 2021 season as well. She is coming off of a bronze medalist performance at the 2020 ACC Indoor Championships. Fellow junior Taylor Grimes looks to bounce back after a seventh-place showing in the 60m hurdles at last weekend’s Orange & Purple Elite Meet.
Sophomore Zach Jaeger and a swarm of men’s distance runners will tackle the 3000m on day two. Jaeger is fresh off a first-place race in the 1000m at the Orange & Purple Elite Meet. Brian Haunch will compete as the Jackets lone vaulter, while Watkins and Dylan Jean-Baptiste face the triple jump & 200m.
