Jillian Schwartz has a nice second attempt clearance, that moves her into tied for 5th with April and Alicia.

Gergel has another excellent attempt at 4.35, but it's not enough and she is done.

Holliday bails on her third and is done. She looks extremely disappointed.

Break for the National Anthem AGAIN. They just sang it less than 2 hours ago. Same group.

The wind has really picked up! It is a smoking tailwind most of the time.

Dragila up first. She has a big jump! Clears 4.45 easily and moves into the lead.

Stuczynski passes to 4.55.

Lacy Janson has her best jump of the day, totally blows through.

Chelsea Johnson has a smoking tailwind and a huge clearance! She ties Dragila for the lead.

Schwartz has a nice first attempt clearance! That moves her into a tie for 3rd.

Melinda Owen bumps it off on her way up, so now Dragila, Johnson, and Stuczynski (who has not entered) are the only ones with no misses.

Janson has a huge second jump, but brushes it off on the way down.

Alicia Rue was over the bar, but she seemed to not think she was over it and tucked into a ball, but that knocked off the bar!

Owen runs and stops, runs back and goes but it's not a very good jump (miss).

Oh man. Lacy has a huge third jump, and just barely nicks it with something on the way down and it's a miss. Her third :(
