In the summer of 2021, Team USA decathlete, Harrison Williams, limped out of the Olympic Trials at the University of Oregon injured, wearing an orthopedic walking boot, in a crushing 4th place.

Adele San Miguel

On November 21, 2015, we opened Pole Vault Carolina’s indoor facility! We had 6 athletes, 10 poles, no money, and a dream.

Seven years later, we are home to 33 state champions, and 72 national qualifiers. We have coached 40 athletes into collegiate athletics, and numerous vaulters to personal success.  We showcase their success, and that of…

The Pole Vault Carolina Decathlon – More Than Sport!

July 27, 2022
Adele San Miguel

Sixteen athletes competed in the Pole Vault Carolina Decathlon last weekend and truly wowed us with their tenacity. Fifteen of those athletes had never attempted a decathlon before. We asked each athlete to set a goal to finish, and they did! There were many highlights, and one stands out above the rest: our youngest decathlete was 9 year-old Grant Elliott. Grant completed all 10 events, and thought he would have to run the last lap of the 1500m by himself…
