How many college coaches have produced an 18ft male vaulter and 14ft female vaulter in the same season?

I personally have no idea. There's probably no way to track this except through word of mouth. This would be so hard to measure.... I mean, did the coach that you speak of really only have 5 years of experience and produced an 18 & a 14? Or, did they receive a 17 foot male and a 13 foot female as incoming freshmen? This is all so subjective that it could only be used for bragging rights.

That's pretty easy...Doesn't Dennis Mitchell coach at Akron? They have had a 18 foot male and 14 foot female. He was pretty fast if I remember correctly.

Wait, wrong Dennis Mitchell....
