I am from a very small town in Eastern Missouri and I my school doesn't even have a vaulting facility. I just started vaulting last year as a junior, but I was addicted right from the start. Currently as a senior I have a PR of 13'3" thanks to the majic of the Earl Bell camps. I have talked to the coaches from Central Missouri State U, Baker U, Missouri Southern State U, and a few others, but those are the 3 at the top of my list at the moment. Good luck to everyone with their plans!

Being a Dec is rough as a freshman.....I came in knowing how to Pole Vault, Long Jump, and Hurdle.......the only problem is that I had to learn all of the throws and the hurdles got taller (42"). I practice right around the maximum each week and had 18 credits. I finally convinced my coach that I could get just as many, if not more points if I just vaulted instead of doing the Dec.
