Mike Tully will be gracing Xtreme Athletics with his presence this coming Monday August 9th. In case you don't know who Mike is, here is a little background:
He represented the United States twice in the Olympics, earning a silver in 1984, and held the American pole vault record from 1984 to 1985.
In a one month period in 1984 he raised the American Record three times by a total of almost three inches. He concluded his campaign with a silve...r medal at the Los Angeles Olympics.
Tully won three national titles, the first two World Cup competitions, and two Pan-Am titles. His PR jump of 19-2 in 1988 still places him among the top 15 U.S. all-time performers.

2 Olympians for the price of One a real bargain!
Mike Tully is a great vaulter and has much to offer. This is worth driving from Neb or from Oklahoma to see.
Not only is Mike there but also Doug Lytle 18'10" former Olympian!
Both Olympians would be a bargain to see and learn from.
Also coaches here is an opportunity to get tips on coaching the pole vault!
