Hogue posted a season best and NCAA qualifier and won his 4th SEC title. He performed well and upheld his role as a team captain. He secured his 3rd consecutive SEC indoor title and his 4th overall. Freshman Joe Berry stepped up his game at the right time with a first attempt clearance at 5.15m to take 8 huge second place points. Bradley Holtz finished in a tie for 6th place and looks to be ready for some big jumps outdoors. Freshman decathlete Michael Ayers posted a 15'11 on tired legs in the open vault the day after finishing the hepthathlon. The day before he posted 2 huge PR's in the heptathlon vault, jumping 16' 2 (4.94m). Jangy Addy also had a PR in the pole vault, clearing 14' 2" during the heptathlon. He went on win the SEC title. Just before the hep vault, he tied the world record in the heptathlon hurdles. That is crazy.
