School's Out Open
Black Springs, AR

Spencer McCorkel made 17'09" on his second attempt for a new PR and a new meet record here today. He was really close on one of his attempts at 18'00". His record height was made on a 15'3" 190lb. (14.6 flex) Altius holding 15'00".

Height Progressions:
16'05" O
16'09" PPP
17'01" O
17'05" PPP
17'09" XO
18'00" XXX

Freshman Samuel Ewing also got a huge PR with 15'07".

I'll post full results of the meet later along with some video.
