2 177 BRAZ Thiago Brazil 5.92 5.92
3 368 ZUPEUC Daniel Chile 5.30 5.30

10 255 BARBER Shawnacy Canada 5.91 5.91


I've listed them here in order of their 2015 SBs:

2 177 BRAZ Thiago Brazil 5.92 5.92
10 255 BARBER Shawnacy Canada 5.91 5.91
9 704 BLANKENSHIP Jake USA 5.80 5.80

6 182 DA SILVA Fabio Brazil 5.80 5.40 (5th in 2011 Pan Ams)
5 297 WURSTER Jason Canada 5.50 5.40 (7th in 2011 Pan Ams)

8 415 BORGES Lazaro Cuba 5.90 5.20 (1st in 2011 Pan Ams)


It looks like Yankier LARA from Cuba (6th in 2011 Pan Ams) is a late scratch.

Good luck to all, but a special shout out to Shawn and Jason! :star:

In a related story, the CBC Pan AM film crew published a vid here: http://panam.cbc.ca/videos/video/canadian-athletes-shine-ncaa-track-and-field.html about Barber's NCAA D1 win at 5.60 (where he missed twice at 5.40). Also featured on this vid is USC sprinter phenom Andre De Grasse.

Two Canadian athletes that all of Canada can be proud of! :star: :star:

Bubka gets around, he was just handing out medals at World Youth a few days ago. Can you tell it is an election year? ;)
