Dunno if she'll be the best but the Pride of Buda will do it with the most style.

And on the guys side, "The San Martian" has a style that is pretty unrivaled.

No - there have been some small practice meets in Ft. Worth but everyone's been too busy to make the 4 hour drive there. Our first meet will be on January 7th, the TexasPoleVault Roundup at the Elite Vaulter's Sports Complex, and then the Carl Lewis Inv. at U. of Houston, then Reno. I'm scaling back a bit on the indoor season and keeping everyone at 12 steps to avoid peaking early like we did last season.
