She actually had the highest height in the meet. She vaulted one centimeter higher than the guys. :dazed:

Anyone notice the strong corilation with big lj and big pv. 19'6"= high vault. Not too many coaches would dare have a 19' attempt the vault. At the same time, most 19's like being good at the long jump.

Jenny Green was also a 19' lj out of high school. :idea:

also one other question. and this is not to be rude or anything but.... on the suhr sports website he mentions his own special technique. does anyone actually see anything noticably different thats not taught by any other experienced coach? obviously whatever he is doing is working, just curious.
