At the Sooner State games at Putnam City high school in Oklahoma City OK. Jack vaulted 18.06 1/2. We stopped after that due to the standards would not go any higher, It was 104 degrees and did not want to hold up the meet. He was vaulting in the open mens division 19-25 age group.
He was on 5 meter 13.1 from 8 steps. Also had a smokin tailwind. Video soon.

Too bad Jack didn't have a chance to attempt the A standard!
