The flag on TV looks cross over the left shoulder. Is that what's up with all of the run throughs? Bubba

Wow. The women are getting pretty good TV coverage on NBC. Too bad there's not a channel dedicated to pole vault. :)

Stacy runs down, stops, runs back. I am not sure if she was distracted by a javelin that went over the fence back there, but whatever. She actually timed out, but jumped anyway and had a close miss.

Nate Fox you rock : )

Bartolina has an AWESOME looking jump!! Don't rule her out just for passing the last height. She hits it off on the way up but has the height for it.

Becky Holliday didn't look like she was going to make it into the pit, but the pole rolled most of the way in at the last second. Not quite enough though, she knocks it off and misses.
