Colwick has more speed on his third but kind of sinks on the pole and squishes it to miss his third.

Mark Hollis asks for a clap and gets it, but he still comes up a little short and misses it.

Skipper misses and is done with a no height. Everyone who picked him to make the team just lost!

Quiller has plenty of height but brushes it on the way down and the bar falls. He's out.

Nidermeyer misses, that is it for 5.50. 12 made it and Brad has not come in yet.

If Brad makes it they may just call it and take 13 to the final.
