Mt. Ida senior, Andrew Irwin, broke the meet record by over 2 feet in the 1A-4A State Indoor Championships today with a final clearance of 17'04.5". His height increments were 15'06" (3rd attempt), 16'01.75" (1st attempt), 17'01.5" (2nd attempt) and 17'04.5" (1st attempt). The old meet record was 15'04".
