Should be dry, but it's pretty cool outside. It's probably going to be lower 60s, feeling colder with the breeze.

It is supposed to warm up and the sun is supposed to come out around 3 or 4...they are calling for almost 70 degrees and 10 to 15 mph north winds...hope this is true because it will make for a great comp!

We are about to get underway!

Weather is OK. A little chilly, but the wind has been mostly a tailwind. It should not rain.

They just finished introductions. Pretty strong tailwind, the wind blowing the pole into the bar could potentially be an issue at some of these lower heights.

Kazuba kicks off the competition with a big ol blow through at 3.90

Gergel passes.
Willer has an easy make.
Clark passes.
Stripling comes down on the bar.

Passes for:
Neumann
Stately
Majester
Pena
Shobe
Viuf


Lauren bails.
Witmer has a close miss.

Kazuba scrapes over the bar on her second attempt. The pole stands straight up and down for several seconds until the official reaches in and grabs it (it did start falling to the side)
Tisher makes on her first.

Stripling has a big second attempt clearance.

Laurent makes on her second.

Wittmer has a close second attempt miss.

Stefanidi and Hutson pass.

Nageotte brushes it off on the way up.
