Katie Veith 13'8"

Unread postby hallvaulter » Sat Feb 25, 2006 9:19 pm

Today at Huntington North Highschool, Katie Veith jumped 13ft 8in, after that she went to 14ft 2 and a half inches, she had some great attempts at it, but didn't make it. She looked great!! Corey Shank had a new pr and jumped 15ft 2 inches, then he went to 15ft 6 and a forth I think to set the new freshman indoor record he almost had it on his third. It was a great day for the Fort Wayne Vault Club.

Just to add some information about the Fort Wayne Vault Club in this meet, Katie moved her run up a stride due to a sore leg a couple weeks ago and managed a new personal best from this run @ 13'8".

Freshman Corey Shank put up a bigger pole today and set a new personal best (15'2")jumping on his new 15'6" Carbons.
Hunter Hall is looking good adjusting to his 16'1" Spirit series and was looking really good. :yes: He needs to time it up a bit on top but got his mid and take off out better. He did jump 15' 6 1/4" and smoked 16'0" on a 4th attempt.
Abby Kimball went 12'2" and had really good height on 12'8" but on a second attempt hit her funny bone and had that tingle feeling in her arm :confused:

Looking forward to a good week and the start of our state indoor season.
Club season is now over :crying:

He is doing fine :yes: Thanks for asking.

Every now and then he gets adjusted. We took the information you gave us in RENO and passed it along to his chiropractor. A good adjustment really puts all the parts back where they need to be. We are both glad you were there :yes: Thanks for the advice and taking the time to help us out :D

Last weekend Gary Hunter jumped 15'6" at Vault High Athletics. This was one day before his 50th birthday. I see a new Age Group World Record in the near future!

Holy crap! That's one inch below my all-time pr. I guess I'm going to have to stop waiting for his knees to wear out ;)
