The conditions were less than ideal for teams to qualify for the men's and women's Little 500 Saturday at Bill Armstrong Stadium.
Snow, sleet, rain and anything in between was falling all day long as teams tried to put up their best times and get into the race this year. The track was sloppy, but that didn't stop teams.
Because of the conditions, qualifying times took a hit. When it all shook out, most of the teams expected to be at the top were there while the teams expected towards the back placed there.
Cutters took the pole for the men's race with a time of 2:34.93. It is the fifth time they have qualified first. They also qualified first in 1985, 2006, 2010 and 2016.
On the women's side, Delta Gamma took the pole with a time of 2:51.359. It is the second straight year they have been on the pole and third overall.
For reference, the 2017 men's pole time was 2:22.580 and the women's was 2:33.308. This year was a significant rise in times.
Here are the lineups for the 31st Women's Little 500 and 68th Men's Little 500.
