Nice season best jump by Marisa who perhaps has been dealing with an injury as her jumping has been well below par for her so far this season. That's the 5th best mark in the AAC so far this year.

Shocker PV Coach Aliyah Welter wins the pole vault clearing 13-9.75 but she may be more proud of her student athlete, Arantxa Cortez who finished 2nd with a clearnance of 12-10 which is a new PB for Arantxa bettering her previous best mark of 12-3.5 by a significant margin. That moves her from 12th in the AAC charts to 6th on the season.

This jump of 12-10 us ab automatic qualifying mark for the U23 South American Championships. Nice speed on her approach. Just a little more upper body strength and Arantxa could clear 13'.
