Guam 2.45 Jude Matinez 2008-03-22 Seattle

Wait, seriously? This was one of my decathletes at Seattle U. There have never been any other males from Guam who pole vaulted?

He also did pole vault in a decathlon at EWU that spring, but I can't find the individual marks, so I will email the coach and try to find out. I can't remember if he jumped any higher or not.

... There have never been any other males from Guam who pole vaulted? ...

Maybe there were ... but apparently just not as high.

Well, Australia's isnt up to date. This makes me wonder about some of the others.

[Robert schmitt]

Hooker did 6.06 indoors in Feb in Boston so it is not an outdoor national record.

[achtungpv]

Becca, you can now put on your resume that you've coached a national recordholder.

[SmurfonaStick]

Oh. I see that now. I new this, just didnt bother to pay attention to the fact that it was titled Outdoor Records.

[skill of the brave]

There is a Zimbabwe guy named Glen Barrett who vaulted 4.56m in Melbourne in December 2009. Higher than the current listed Zimbabwe record of 4.50m.
