Hey guys!

I heard that Andrew was one of the most promising young polevaulters in the nation. I think he lives in Ohio or the area, and hes going out west for college. Does anyone know anything else about him?

thanks
matt

when i was a senior in HS, he was a freshman. He jumped 14' at that meet. Glad i got my state championship in when i did cuz he got the next 4/5. yikes. He and his dad are both really nice guys. I talked to them a bit when they came to our home meet. Had some really good 5m looks. The only think i worry about him is that he is already doing soooo much right (great overall technique, fast, and strong), i wouldnt' know what else to do with him. But im sure the coach at AU wont have any problems makin a monster out of him.

I met him at Earl's a couple of years ago. He's a really nice guy. Even remembered my name when I saw him in Reno last month.

Hi this is Andrew Rademacher. I'm a new member and this is my first post so I hope it works out well. Matt, I'll tell you a little bit about myself. I go to a small high school, Hickory High School located in Hermitage, PA. I am a senior and my PR is 16-4.5. My dad coaches me along with a former state champ. from our high school, Tom Hale. I signed on with University of Arizona and am extremely excited about next year. I will be vaulting at the Nike Indoor Classic three weeks from now. I'm just waiting for a breakthrough any time now. Have any more questions please ask.

Hey Cowboy! (andrew) we're looking forward to having you around next year. Start thinking about a costume for next Halloween. I've got a picture I'll give you in the fall of all of us dressed up.

Good luck at Nike, its a fun meet. Keep us posted on how you're doing.

Yep, there is always more to do. If he had it perfected Andrew would be jumping 20 ft in HS. He does have a lot of talent. :yes:
