QUALS – LITTLE 500
03.25.2026
Little 500 is one of the biggest collegiate events in the country. Thirty-three teams, both men’s and women’s, compete for first place in this annual bike race. But before Little 500 can begin, teams have to compete in Qualifiers to decide which are the top 33 teams and in what order they will begin the race.
For months, teams recruit new racers, practice, and train to make their mark on the race. But no practice is more important than pre-quals. Pre-quals takes place just days before Qualifiers and each team has their own specific time where they will hit the track.
