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…

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.
