You'll definitely get looked at. Be sure to contact schools you are interested in, don't wait for them to hunt you down. You should be in a good position to get at least a reply back from pretty much anyone.

You should be just fine . I know plenty of guys who jumped lower than 15 their senior year and still organize some sort of financial scholarship from a school in desperate need of some vaulters. However that doesnt mean it will be your first choice. Ive already filled out questionnares and emailed coaches to some of my top choices. Make sure you are all signed up on NCAAclearinghouse as well.
The greater the challenge, the more glorious the triumph
