I like the Irony in your high school's name....University High School, and you had guys over 17'1 and 16'0 :yes: it works, seems more like university level heights.

Our record is 8' for guys and 4.5' for girls. I was the 8' at a track meet and the other vaulter (girl) is 4.5' she atleast tries.

When I was in high school (last century) the record was 16', that is until I got a hold of it, when I left it was 16' 4" indoors and 17' 1" outdoors, for a while my sister had the girls record around 9'6" I think, who knows what it is now.
