SUNYAC CHAMPIONSHIP HISTORY: Led by fourth-year head coach Andrew Krug, the Cardinals are looking to continue to move up the conference standings, as Plattsburgh State finished sixth out of nine teams at last year's meet. Geneseo, who had won six straight indoor track and field championships, departed the conference, meaning a new champion will be crowned for the first time since 2016. Cortland won in 2016 and finished second last year as they look to be the favorites heading into the weekend. Teams competing this year include several new schools, as Alfred State, Morrisville, Penn State Behrend, SUNY Cobleskill, and SUNY Delhi will be a part of the 2025 indoor championships.
 
ABOUT THE CARDINALS: Leading the way for Plattsburgh State is junior Charles Cypress (New Windsor, N.Y./Cornwall) who is seeded first in the 60-meter dash (6.90) and second in the 200-meter dash (22.08). Cypress earned bronze at last year's meet, breaking his school record with a 22.20 race. Senior Justin Kumrow (Mahopac, N.Y./Mahopac) earned himself the second seed in the 800-meter race (1:59:52) as he will look for his first career medal. First-year Jackson Hooper (Elizabethtown, N.Y./Boquet Valley) will also be looking to medal at the championship meet, as he sits as the second seed in the high jump event (1.92m) looking to begin his collegiate career with a strong championship outing.

Other Cardinals Competing in races at the meet include junior Jordan Williams (Bronx, N.Y./Cardinal Hayes) in the 60-meter dash (7.05), sophomore Justin Rushia (Warrensburg, N.Y./Warrensburg) in the 60-meter dash (7.20), sophomore Ryan Beltran (Bronx, N.Y./Cardinal Hayes) in the 400-meter dash (52.28), first-year Ethan Cypress (New Windsor, N.Y./Cornwall) in the 400-meter dash (52.53), sophomore Matt DeJulio (Wynantskill, N.Y./Averill Park) in the 800-meter-run (2:02:46), sophomore Zander Brown (Wappingers Falls, N.Y./Roy C.
