I think today is the last day for marks to entry the trials with. The top 24 is what I was told would make it. Taking the entries listed at usatf.org and updating Mack to 5.90 this is what the top 24 might be. Hope the winds don't suck like they did in 2000.

that must be soo cool.being in the olympic trials while ur in college..

wheres lojo.

5.70 isn't even in the top ten. Holy Pole Vaulters, Batman!

Unfortunately Dean's foot is giving him problems. He made a great effort to qualify for his last OT, but injuries have gotten the best of him. Dean will be there coaching Justin Norberg. So the 5.51m marks might make it in.

Dean and Justin from NJ?>

What about the women? Jodie has jumped with Amy Linnen the last two weekends. She is a class act and super nice. She blew through 15'1" on all her attempts after making 14'7" last Sunday!!! Best of luck to you Amy!!!!

Dean and Justin from NJ?>

Dean and Justin are both from Illinois and went to UofI back in the day. Dean had taken a break from vaulting around 2000 due to achilles injury. He took a couple years off and then Justin moved out here (California). Dean decided to coach and train with Justin. So they both jump for Shore A.C. b/c they knew one of the guys that run the Shore Athletic Club.

I'm sorry to hear that Dean won't be able to make it

Way to go Mr. Mack. Thats what you call a timely peak.
