I want to say Jesse Shoemaker from Pflugerville (or however you spell it)class of 01', in the 8th grade jumped about 14'3"...Brian Elmore would know for sure though, he was his coach. That might be the national record for that age also. Pflugerville is north of Austin.

This is like rubbing salt in a cut here. I just wish I could hit those "8th grade records" as a senior!
