The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will host the 2015 ACC Championships in Atlanta, the school announced today, marking the fourth time they will have that honor, after 2005, 2008, and 2011.
The Georgia Tech pool was originally built to host the 1996 Summer Olympic Games, and the $21-million facility sits 1,900 spectators, which is slightly bigger than the Greensboro Aquatic Center (1,848) that will host the 2014 edition of the meet.
Georgia Tech is also a finalist to host the 2015-2018 NCAA Championships, the awardees of which will be announced later this year.
