Greenberg Wins City Pole Vault

June 01, 2006

It seems hard to believe that 13 months ago Bryan Greenberg had never pole vaulted in his life. The Palisades High junior has come a long way in a short time, as evidenced by his winning the event at last Thursday's City Section Track and Field finals and qualifying for the Friday's state championships at Cerritos College.

Greenberg was the only one of nine finalists to clear 12-6 and that was six inches higher than his nearest competitor at Birmingham High in Lake Balboa. His personal best of 13-0 came at the same site during the Rotary Invitational in April.

Despite there being no runway to practice on at Pali, Greenberg won the Western League finals to qualify for the City preliminaries, where he cleared 11-0.
