Tentative placings:
1st (Suhr)
2nd (Holliday)
3rd (Owen)
4th (Janson)
5th (Hutson)

I'm thinking Saxer would have been 6th.

Decent 2nd attempt for Jenn Suhr but a miss

Now we have Dan O'Brien, so we might get a decent commentary on Jenn's third attempt...

So let's see if Jenn goes for a world leading mark, or straight for a new American Record.

Still 15 minutes to the men's SP, and they can't show the running now because of ESPN, so we should get coverage of Jenn's remaining attempts via the webcast.

Dan O'Brien thinks Jenn is going to 4.80... not a WL or AR but would be #2 in the world if she clears.

Probably a sign that Jenn doesn't feel like she has a _big_ jump in her.

Twitter indicates Jenn going for 4.86 which would be WL and AR… not a bad attempt! Dan O'Brien still keeps saying 4.80 but the officials spent quite a bit of time measuring, so 4.86 makes more sense.

The in-stadium announcer indicated she is attempting AR, so that backs up the 4.86 theory... and it's a miss.

WHAT TERRIBLE ONLINE COVERAGE :( :( :(

*sigh* and of course FlashResults can get the race results up 2 seconds after the event is over, but not the PV.

This very pregnant lady is grumpy :( I expect better out of our national championships in 2011.
