The girls are warming up now! Weather is perfect. Wind is mostly tail, sometimes a little cross.

Starts at 5:30pm.

Junior women about to get underway. Weather is still awesome. Wind is a cross-tail. Looks like more tail than cross.

Opening height is 3.80.

[rainbowgirl28]

Cara Carpenter kicks it off with an easy make at 3.80

[rainbowgirl28]

Worthen gets a little crooked and comes down on the bar for a miss.

[rainbowgirl28]

Demi Payne knocks it off on the way up.

Catherine Street knocks it off with her hip.

[rainbowgirl28]

Willer has tons of height but comes down on it. I am surprised she came in this low.

Landry misses.

Roberge either isn't here or I missed her jump.

Ehardt misses.

[rainbowgirl28]

Maybe Siebenaller passed? Her name came up on the scoreboard but when the vaulter jumped it said Koressel missed.

Lee runs through.

[rainbowgirl28]

Shade Weygandt looked like she had a pretty flat takeoff but still makes it easily.

[rainbowgirl28]

Worthen clears on her second.

Street blows through and misses. I missed what Landry did?

Ehardt makes. Willer makes big. Siebenaller misses (and she did miss her first)

Koressel makes it but her pole knocks it down... she really didn't push it back, the official calls it a miss.

[rainbowgirl28]

Lee gets stood up, and the pole slips out of her hands and creates a rather spectacular crash.
