Congratulations to all the Pole Vault Power members who qualified to NCAAs!

Predictions anyone?

[jomrus]

Kind of a touchy subject I think... predictions make people angry sometimes... besides they don't mean shnicketty.

Hehe not as touchy as which brand of pole people like best!

Any predictions on here are just for fun, and no one is allowed to take them seriously or get offended.

Well I think Walker is hands down the favorite on the mens side. Damn, that guy can move a pole. He's jumping on 5.20's and i wouldn't be suprised to see him bust 70 if not 80 sometime here soon. As for the next few places, I could see it going any way between Danners, Eshbach, and Litchfield, although it would be nice to see Eshbach do something big for the first time in 4 years.

On the girls side, although I'm slightly partial, I'm gonna have to go with the Oregon 1,2. Which one will take it i really don't know, but unless Linnen can bust out a freak mark of 14'9" like she did last year, I don't think she'll be taking top 2.

[wacky274]

I think linnen has a good chance to bust something big. I would not be surprised to see her in teh 14' 8" to 14'9" area, but then again, we'll see.

[PVJunkie]

can i vote for Jeremy Scott............DIII. Of couse we will have to take his marks from world champs..........

Top Freshman at DI......hands down the freshman thats now a member of this board. (hint: hes from akron and will be a force to watch! Saw him at ND last chance and he is the real deal)

Top So............im going with Bobby

Top Jr..........Brad

Top Sr........Toss up.....Pooh, Rocky or Eric.........I will go with Pooh

Top overall......gotta go with Brad, hes jumping too consistantly, Behind him its a toss up as to whose got the best mojo that day.

[vaultin chris]

Russell is the best freshman. I agree -- he's the truth.

[californianvaulter]

I here everyone talking about back east vaulters, but anyone who was at the UCLA meet two weeks ago and saw him BOOM 5.35M, might agree that Giovanni Lanaro, may be the sleeper in the field. I found out that he weighs only 170 and he is on 5M 200lb poles!!! Incredible.[b][/b]
