Men's Prelims - Walker NH :(

[SKOT]

Hartwig has to clear to advance. He's not top 12 on misses.

There are also 11 already over 5.65m. It would be pretty amazing if no one else clears!

Sawano has some height but comes down on the bar and is out

[rainbowgirl28]

Noo! Walker has plenty of height but knocks down the bar on the way down.

[rainbowgirl28]

Lobinger over but knocks it off on the way down and is out

[rainbowgirl28]

So pit B is done. 6 over

[rainbowgirl28]

5 are already over on Pit A with 7 left to go, so we probably will see the bar go to 5.75. A marathon competition!

Yurchenko makes. The bar wiggles but stays

[rainbowgirl28]

Clavier makes!

Hartwig crashes down on the bar and misses

THe US men are showing of the variety of uniforms available... Miles is in the singlet and distance runner short... Walker is in the singlet and long tights, and Hartwig is in the sleeveless speedsuit.

Does he have any attempts left?

I wonder what the maximum number of vaulters is they would take to finals? You would think that if only 13-14 make this height that they would take them all... I wonder where the cutoff is.

The pole vault is running WAY later than the rest of the track meet, and it is late at night there (almost midnight!), so I am inclined to think they will be more generous
