Sorry I had to reset the feed (my internet sucks for streaming) and missed Hutson's jump but it looked like she cleared.

Steiner-Bennett runs through.

Apparently their server can handle 3 connections. I get nothing but a blank video. Ugh.

The announcers are sooo awkward and painful to listen to at times. They should fly me out there next year :P

Walker has a lot of height over the bar but he brushes the bar on the way down.

LOL @ the one announcer thinking the pole is knocking the bar down.
