I am not sure who they got but I know they are getting away from the vault. I was suppose to have an interview with Brendon on Tuesday but got an email that he had hire someone. He said they were trying to go more sprinter oriented. All I know is I feel sorry for Jimmie Heath. An 18 foot vaulter with no coach!

Yea. That does suck for Jimmie. Anyone know what happened to him last year? I think I only saw one result (indoors) with his name in it and he might have jumped 4.75? Was he hurt? Did he redshirt?

Jimmie broke his wrist after he jumped 5.50 at Texas Relays. He was jumping at 5.60 "I think" and went off the side and landed on his wrist. He red shirted outdoors this year. He had surgery on it a few months ago.

UM elevates Bork to full-time assistant
By the Missoulian


University of Montana track and field coach Tom Raunig announced recently that Adam Bork, a two-time All-America decathlete for the Grizzlies, has been elevated to a full-time assistant coach.

Bork assumes the full-time job that he and former assistant Brian Schweyen had been splitting the last two years.

Schweyen, who spent 10 seasons on Raunig's staff, resigned his part-time coaching position recently to pursue a full-time art career. Schweyen coached a handful of All-Americans and dozens of Big Sky Conference individual champions during his successful tenure. In 2007 he guided Ryan Grinnell to high jump and triple jump titles at both the Big Sky indoor and outdoor championships and Robb Hollenbeck to a long jump title at the outdoor meet.

Bork's areas of focus will be the multi-events, high jump, long jump, triple jump and pole vault.

“I'm excited for the chance to take on the full-time position,â€Â
