A meeting record in the 60m Hurdles by Gregory Sedoc (Netherlands), a world season lead in the 1500m by Ethiopia’s Deresse Mekonnen and a fine win in the Pole Vault by Germany’s Fabian Schulze were the highlights of the Leipzig Indoor Meeting, in Leipzig, Germany on Sunday (1).

In the Pole Vault Fabian Schulze did very well, clearing 5.70m in the arena, which will also stage the national championships in three weeks time. He won the competition from his fellow-countrymen Tobias Scherbarth (5.60m) and Björn Otto, who took third place with the same height. Schulze then went for 5.82m, but missed this three times. Tim Lobinger had to be content with seventh place and 5.40m. He could not manage 5.50m on Sunday.
