In his first outdoor meet as a collegian, Andrew Irwin broke his school outdoor record twice today. He eclipsed the old mark of 5.55, held by Jeremy Scott, with 5.56m (18'03") and 5.60m (18'04.5"). I think this will take the national collegiate lead outdoors. Great job, Andrew!

The results say that he jumped at 5.50m but it was 5.56m.

vid? this kid is a monster

Irwin must really be a stud, sure wish his coach would have picked another weekend for their spring invite and he could have jumped at Texas relays.

Video of his jumps 5.30 and up:

Thanks for the video. That is good vaulting, and fun to watch.
