DURHAM, N.C. – Duke track and field graduate students Simen Guttormsen and Christian Johnson look to cap their respective seasons with a bang, as the duo gears up to compete at the 2025 NCAA Indoor Championships at the Virginia Beach Sports Complex.
Guttormsen, who enters with the No. 4 mark in the NCAA, gets the action going for the Blue Devils in the men's pole vault (6 p.m.). Johnson, ranked 14th nationally, takes part in the men's weight throw (6:05 p.m.) shortly after.
Live results for the national meet are available on FlashResults via the link HERE.

HOW THEY GOT THERE
- Guttormsen cemented his spot at the NCAA Indoor Championships via a phenomenal and record-breaking performance en route to winning gold at the ACC Indoor Championships.
- The graduate student cleared bars set at 5.29m, 5.49m, 5.64m and 5.67m – the latter height locking down the win and All-ACC First Team status. Guttormsen's mark of 5.67m (18-7.25 feet) shattered both the ACC and meet records set in 2017 and improved his own school record in the process.
- Johnson punched his ticket to the national meet courtesy of his stellar showing at ACC's. The veteran claimed the first podium finish of the weekend for Duke with a runner-up finish in the men's weight throw.
- Johnson delivered a monster throw on his second attempt, launching the weight 22.93m (75-2.75 feet) for a new personal best, picking up the silver medal and All-ACC First Team recognition in the process.
