From a section in CNN sports review:
http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2004/o ... index.html

In the men's pole vault, a couple of top contenders failed to make it out of the preliminary round.

Jeff Hartwig is the American record-holder in the men's pole vault and a four-time national champion. But bad things seem to happen to Hartwig when the Olympics approach.

Hartwig missed out on a chance for the Athens Games when he failed to clear any of his attempts Friday. He also failed to make it out of the qualifying round at the Olympic trials in 2000.

"I said after 2000 I'll never let myself be that disappointed again," said Hartwig, who finished 11th at the 1996 Olympics. "This is par for the course for me at these kinds of meets."

Also failing to qualify for Sunday's final was Lawrence Johnson, the reigning Olympic silver medalist. Reaching the final were Toby Stevenson, who has the best vault in the world this year, and defending Olympic champion Nick Hysong.

A scripture that makes me think of all you girls and guys pole vaulting....

he makes my feet like the feet of a deer,
he enables me to go on the heights.

I just want to say nice job to everyone at the trials! I can't believe how high the U.S. pole vaulters are jumping right now! Great job to Tye, Nick, Russ, Brad, and all the guys that represented the U.S. on both days.

*pats himself on back* I should have put money on this in Vegas. LOL What do I win?
