Mary Sauer has a second attempt miss at 4.45. She cleared 4.20 on her first and 4.35 on her 3rd.

She wasn't on the start list, I wonder if she is replacing Chelsea Johnson? Last time I talked to Chelsea she wasn't sure if she was going to be able to make it out.

Did they just call Jenn Stuczynski Jenny?

That's how she's on the start list.

Edit: Saur has 2nd miss at 4.45 and isn't happy.

LOL you're right.

I have never heard her called Jenny in my life. Jenn, Jennifer, or Stu, yes, Jenny no.

Mary looked REALLY good in warmups at USAs. If she can put it together over a bar in a meet, she could be back over 4.60+ again.

Her 4.45 miss was not particularly close though.

Kym Howe of Australia clears 4.45 on her second. She brushes the bar a little but it stays up.

She cleared 4.30 on her first.

Yay for Jenn finally making it on TV!!!!

Never "Jennski"? I'd think that would be a natural.

Cleared 4.45 on her 2nd attempt!

Jennski? LOL. Never heard her called that, but there could be nicknames I don't know about.

Jenn misses her first attempt at 4.55. I think the announcer called her Jenn this time instead of Jenny. It looked to me like the pole was too soft.

I never noticed this before, but it looks like she has a little but of a Derek Miles pole carry going on.

Feofanova clears 4.55 on her first. She goes wide right a little bit, but still puts some height on the bar.

Feo clear at 4.55 after Stu's 1st attempt miss.

Edit: I should probably leave the play-by-play to you, and just stick to doing "color".

Big clearance for Jenn on her second attempt. It looks like she moved up a pole and it worked out well. She had plenty of clearance on all sides.

They're showing her talking to Rick Suhr, he gets his minute of fame as well

The announcer is saying that is looks like she has all the credentials to be a great vaulter.

I love British accents :heart:

Grigorieva misses her third at 4.55. She looks really bummed.

Kym Howe bails out on her third attempt at 4.55 and now both Aussies are out.
