National Pole Vault Summit
Victory Athletics was represented very well in Reno, NV over the weekend. Nick Masterson (SR.-Servite HS) jumped 13-02 and just missed 13-08, which is just under his PR. Colin Parker (SR-Servite HS) jumped 11-02, which is only one inch under his PR from a year ago. Both are great early season marks for the Friars.
The highlight of the Summit was to have the first ever Victory Athletics Elite team compete in the elite section. Crowd favorites, Mike Landers and Justin Norberg represented VA very well wearing the colors of Victory! Norberg managed to clear a modest 17-01 and looked good doing it, while Landers was able to leap 17-07!
Landers plans on training through the indoor season and focus on qualifying for the USA Olympic Trials in mid June. Norberg is looking to earn a spot on the USA indoor world championship team as well as the Olympic team. Both are looking very solid for this time of year.
