Just heard from Coach Shank, Corey cleared 16'7.25'' tonight for a new SAC conference meet record, he won the event but rain stopped him from continuing.

By Ellie Bogue of The News-Sentinel
Northrop’s Corey Shank won the boys’ pole-vault competition Tuesday, setting an SAC record, at a meet at Wayne High School.
Northrop High School sophomore Corey Shank figures he was about 2 years old the first time he tried to pole-vault.
