Kevin: In a field with NCAA champions and global medalists, Erik Sowinski will get the victory in the men's 800m.
JoJo: Shelby Houlihan will win the 1500m and the 5K, the 3rd U.S. double of her career.
- 3000m/1500m titles at 2018 U.S. Indoors
- 2 Mile/1 Mile titles at 2017 U.S. Indoors
Adam: I’m confident that Kevin and JoJo didn’t realize they were picking former Iowa runners (Erik / University of Iowa and Shelby / Sioux City East H.S.) to win U.S. titles, in Iowa.
Gordon: In his first meet as a professional athlete, Michael Norman runs top-10 U.S. all-time 200m mark.
Adam: In what will be my first ever USA Championship in person, coming off a tremendous NCAA Championship, a non-World Championship year and a weather forecast fit for Twister, this week will be thrilling!
