Stacy Dragila pops a 15-5 a week before the Trials
According to a report on the T&FN message board, Stacy Dragila today vaulted 4.70 meters (15-5) -- another W35 world age-group record. It's also among the top 5 jumps in the world this year! The mark, 5 inches below her PR, was made at the Olympic Training Center southeast of San Diego. 4.70 on the Age-Graded Tables is equivalent to an Open (20-30) mark of 5.32 (17-5 1/2). We've also learned that W55 Kay Glynn topped a Phil Raschker WR at Los Gatos High School in Northern California. Mastersrankings.com reports that Kay went 3.07 (10-0 3/4). That beats the listed WR of 3.05 (10-0) by Phil in 2002. Nice jumping, ladies!
