Re: Jordan Ostlund - Trampoline Accident 2004

I'm from Wyoming. Even on the western side of the state we felt the ripple effect from this accident. There was a moment of silence at Star Valley High School, which I attended when I was younger.

Re: Tremont Street Vault 2010 (IL)

Again, scouting out events to travel to in summer 2011, is this event going to take place again?

Funny how that worked out, usually these kinds of transfers go D3 so they can participate in more events. When I decided to transfer, the fact that I was receiving repetitive spra...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjXlSs95hWc I would call this a serious injury. The funny thing about this guy is that he had a long argument prior to the event with his trainer concerning the use of an ankle brace which he eventually used.
