There is No Team in I

*Originally published in Makes & Misses department of TAKEOFF Magazine, December 2021 By Jose R. San Miguel Most athletes who come through our doors become members of two teams: school and club. Many of their schools lack an experienced pole vault coach, poles, and landing systems that are in compliance with NFHS standards. Pole vault clubs fill this gap by providing all three. Each athlete has their own reason to endure the ups and down of pole vaulting, the intense training…

Happy Indoor Anniversary to Us!

It was exactly 6 years ago that we signed the lease for our indoor facility. We had been renting the track at a local high school, and for a time, jumping in our side yard! We only intended to have the space through the cold and rainy indoor season, but athletes kept showing up for practice. The ability to train independent of the weather meant that our vaulters benefitted from consistent practices and later that season, performed at the highest…

We are thrilled to acknowledge Julianna Hallyburton for her commitment to Colgate University! Julianna’s is a story of patience.

She worked on drills and technique, speed and strength; then the personal bests came, and ultimately the opportunity to pole vault at her first choice school.We wish Julianna every success and know she will be in good hands with Coach Harlis Meaders! #colgatexctf #polevault #polevaulting #polevaultmeet #trackandfield…

Jonathan Horn Commits to Duke University!

We couldn’t be happier for Jonathan Horn and his commitment to Duke University! ⁠⁠Jonathan committed to improve the summer before his junior year; then he became unstoppable. Duke was not on his college radar as he didn’t think he was good enough. When the coach from Duke visited the club last month, Jon vaulted his heart out. Coach Wilbourn started videoing his jumps and at the end of practice offered him a spot on the team. Success is where opportunity…

Adele San Miguel

by Jose R. San Miguel As published in The TAKEOFF Magazine, October 2021. Competing in college is the ultimate goal for many high school athletes. You yearn to wear a singlet from your school of choice, live in an athletic dorm, and benefit from the perks of being a student athlete like preferential class schedule, lots of gear, tutors, and recognition. Plus, you hope to surpass your high school record. The truth is that less than 2% of high school…
