Congratulations are in order for all those athletes competing in the Hawkeye Challenge - especially Jacob Barents (weight throw); Chris Nilsen (pole vault); and Samara Spencer (long jump). Each set a new school record.
Impressive achievements!! It will be interesting to see how the Coyote tracksters compete this season.

Very nice. It appears he didn't even touch the bar so what a jump, pretty much a perfect jump.

Are you kidding me with this guy. A freshman on top of it. USD vaulters don't need to go train with team USA if they want to make the olympics, team USA needs to come train at USD if they want to make the olympics.
USD has a world class operation going on in Vermillion. The pole vaulting that is going on at USD is in no other words, incredible.

Been following the live stats of the National Indoor Meet and I believe Chris just took 1st place...

The web-site for following track is atrociously slow, but it appears he cleared 18'6 1/2" and it has now been closed from "in progress" to "complete." Would be a HUGE deal for a freshman on the Bowerman Watch List.
