It’s hard to explain how cool it feels to be a state champion. It’s funny, but it didn’t really sink in for me until a few days later. My brother and dad both won state, so it’s really kinda cool to carry on that family legacy thing. They were both really excited for me, too. I also have to say that I had a lot of great coaching and that helps when you’re focusing on your technique.

I remember the day I joined track and looking up at the pictures of all the state champions we have on the wall in our fieldhouse. This was something I had as a goal. It’s been amazing the amount of love I felt when I got back to school after the meet. It’s really special to have your family and friends recognize all the hours of hard work you’ve put in to reach this point.

It really hit me when people started congratulating me. It’s an awesome feeling after all the hours of work we put in to compete. Especially with pole vaulting, there are times when you’re 15-to-16 feet off the ground, looking down at a concrete or metal box. There are just so many things going on in your mind. It’s just awesome to realize that you’ve put it all together and won a championship.
