2008 USATF JUNIOR CHAMPIONSHIPS

Columbus, Ohio -- The Ohio State University

1st: Joe Berry: 5.30m
2nd: Maston Wallace: 5.30m



Joe battled today at the USATF Jr. meet which included a solid field of young collegiates and elite high school vaulters. The field included the recently crowned NCAA champion from Texas (Maston Wallace). Joe was behind on misses all day but made a crucial 1st attempt clearance at 5.30m to take and hold the lead, securing a National Championship title of his own. Both guys vaulted well considering the steady crosswinds. Both had some good attempts at the facility record. He and Maston also secured a place on the USA team which will travel to Poland next month for the World Championship meet. The World championships vault will take place on July 10th (qualifying) and July 12th (finals).
