Freshman vaulters

[invert07]

i think penn state is a great choice for jason, as long as your happy and like the coaches thats all that matters bud! still sad about you not coming over my way but as long as your happy best of luck!

I would call it optimistic confidence, since i have 8 chances to make nationals. But I know nothing is guaranteed in the vaulting world, anything can happen.

[sooch90]

8 chances? how?

4 indoor 4 outdoor

[kev44000]

yes!!!!! Penn State, they will have a contender the next four years. Good luck Jason you will get it done.

ah i see

while we're on the topic, are there any meets where D3 competitors (if good enough) compete with some D1 competitors?

[vault3rb0y]

Absolutely, there are college open meets. You might not see as much of it at invites, but if you are good enough at a D3 you can not only compete at open meets you can win. You just have completely different regional and national qualifying meets and championships.

Just depends on what schedule the DIII school picks. Most schools pick a schedule that has DI competitors, but it depends a lot on location and attitude of the coaching staff.

ah, well I hope to see some of you guys at some college meets!

At La Crosse we competed against D1 all the time... just a matter of how your coach makes his schedule

as long as you like the atmosphere, academics, and know that the college you go to wont coach you down then your set. unfortunatley theres a ton of instences where 15 6 or 16 ft vaulters go off to college and are never heard of again because of some bogus coaching staff. its sad but happens.

[Haverford123]

is it possible to go to college in one school but vault for another?
(sorry i dont know anything about college things but im trying to figure
out ways in which i can still vault,,, im thinking of camps as well)
Thanks
