I think
Brad Walker - University of Washington
and Kate Soma - University of Washington

Although , this might be a bit biased :-)

Brad Walker I agree will be the top contender. Kate Soma.......ummm mabye not. How can you not say Amy Linen, the girl jumped higher then any college girl has ever jumped in the history of track and field and she was only a sophmore. Amy Linen or bust....!
Just fly high, and KISS THE SKY!!!

Champions aren't made in gyms. Champions are made from something they have deep inside them-a desire, a dream, a vision. They have to have last-minute stamina, they have to be a little faster, they have to have the skill and the will. But the will must be stronger than the skill. - Muhammad Ali

Talent in cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.

I'm pulling for Chelsea Johnson at UCLA. She went 13'6 in under a year of training, and she's now working with one of the best coaches in the country, Anthony Curran. It certainly helps that she's the daughter of another one of the best coaches in the country, Jan Johnson, and has been around vaulting her entire life.

Are you guys sure that Brad Walker has another season of outdoor? I though he was done for sure, but if he does have another season Lon is right he will be very tough to beat.
