I think DJ hit it right on.

I can understand, why a volunteer official would be more concerned about the actual competition and safety of the vaulters and not their fashion. My primary concern is to officiate a safe and fair competition for the athletes. Not what has been deemed unsavory fashion. As a coach, if your athlete ca...

I don't know about moving those standards, I think Demi's coach has her headed in the right direction.

This is going to be such an anticlimatical meet. Jump til we have 12 and shut it down. Fortunately for pole vault fans up to that point this meet should be great up to that point. So many great athletes, no regional winner. I still expect great performances to get to that 12, it is just going to fee...

I have always thought this has to be the most fun camp in Texas. Pole vaulting and waterskiing? Great coaching? If I wasn't old and arthritic, this is where I would be.

Me too, Jordan was needing more recovery time, asked for the pass and was given it. I think if the wind had been as favorable at the beginning of the competition, they would have both passed to higher bars. The wind was a little swirly when they warmed up and when the comp started. We had straight, ...

Also wanted to comment on the toughness of Air Force cadet Nick Frawley, Nick warmed up to compete after suffering a horrible(but funny, now that he is ok) accident last week. I can't describe it well, so check it out on youtube, search for nick frawley and it comes up pretty quick. My hat's off to ...
