Field events are scheduled to begin at noon with the men's high jump while running events are scheduled to begin with the women's mile run qualifiers at 2 p.m. The meet will conclude on Saturday with field events scheduled to begin at 11 a.m. with the women's shot put finals and running events are slated to begin at 12 p.m. with the women's mile run final.

North Carolina State is the lone school that has both the women (No. 9) and the men (No. 18) nationally ranked. On the women's side, Notre Dame holds a No. 13 ranking while No. 16 Duke and No. 18 Miami are also represented. For the men, No. 11 Virginia Tech leads four ACC schools including No. 14 Syracuse, No. 18 NC State and No. 23 Virginia.
Last year in the Cardinals' inaugural ACC Indoor Championships, the men finished tied for ninth while the women finished 12th.
