For those of you who have been looking for a Mondo pole vault update. He has been taking the summer off playing little league baseball. he's in the louisiana state playoffs and just hit his second grand slam in a less than a week. Hopes to make it to williamsport like his brother andreas.

After taking the summer off for baseball,they lost in the state finals,Mondo finally got in a practice at Earl Bell's facility. He jumped 13'1 on thursday and 13'2 on friday. .Both would be PRs if a real meet.

You never see them at high schools in Oklahoma. Very few. And box collars never.
