Tim Mack will be looking to win his second U.S. Indoor title Saturday night in the Gill Men's Pole Vault. The 2002 USA Indoor champion, Mack won the gold medal at the 2004 Athens Olympics and ended that season ranked #1 in the world.
2000 Olympic gold medalist and 2005 World Outdoor Championships bronze medalist Nick Hysong will also compete in Albuquerque, where he'll be looking to earn his second USA Indoor title after winning his first back in 1995 with a clearance of 5.85 meters/19 feet 2.25 inches.
Aside from Mack and Hysong, the only other entrant in the field that owns a USA Indoor crown is Derek Miles (2003), who finished fourth at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Others to watch include 2009 USA Outdoor Championships runner-up Jeremy Scott, who ended that year ranked #2 in the U.S., and Darren Niedermeyer, who finished third at the 2009 USA Indoor Championships and entered the 2010 season ranked #8 in the U.S.
