Only Field Events!

 As promised, here's all the Field event action that took place before the NCAA's!

And who else but Mondo Duplantis should be the headliner??
He topped the bar set at 20-0 in the Hengelo meet!
This gets him the Meet Record, and the Age 21 Record!
He's literally raised the bar in the Pole Vault, and seems ready to continue to do so!!

Let's continue with the PV!
Sondre Guttormsen (Remember him?) broke his own National Record of Norway with his clearance of 19-0.75!
Katie Nageotte's been hot lately!
She went over 15-11 in Tennessee!
Olivia Gruver took a PV in Chula Vista with 15-3.50!

In 5th place, however, Amanda Moll broke the Soph Class Record with 14-7.25!
She ranks 5th A-T HS, tied with 1 other!
Amanda also had a clearance (in another meet!) of 14-1.25!
I used her first name there for a good reason!
Her sister Hana Moll also cleared 14-1.25, making her 11th A-T HS, tied with 1 other!

Holly Bradshaw cleared 15-9.75, getting Great Britain's OUTdoor National Record!
This makes her 15th A-T World, tied with 5 others!
Roberta Bruni was 2nd with a height of 15-2.75!

Anzhelika Sidorova went over 16-1.25 at the Golden Gala meet!
No MR, as Yelena Isinbayeva has that mark set at 16-6!!
Iryna Zhuk took 2nd with a good 15-5.50!
Renaud Lavillenie showed he isn't done yet, clearing 19-0.25 in his Home nation!
Ekaterina Stefanidi topped 15-7 in a recent meet!

Other Jumps
Sha Keela Saunders LJ'ed 22-7.75 in Chula Vista!
Hughes Zango (I've seen him referred to as Fabrice also!) TJ'ed a World Leader of 57-11.75!
He gets the Burkina Faso NR!
But he misses my World DDD by 3.25 inches!
(For those new to my blog, "DDD" stands for Double Dandy Dozen, aka my Top 24 All-Time Performers list!!)

Edgar Rivera got Mexico's NR in the HJ, clearing 7-7!
In Chula Vista's Women's LJ, Jazmine Sawyers leapt 22-7.75!
She beat the 22-5.75 of Quanesha Burks!
Three Men HJ'ed 7-7.75 at the Golden Gala meet.
The winner was Ilya Ivanyuk, who beat Brandon Stone and Gianmarco Tamberi, in that order!
Mutaz Barshim could clear just 7-6.50!

Malaika Mihambo is still a threat, as she went 22-4.50 in the LJ!
Senni Salminen TJ'ed 47-7.25 for Finland's National Record!
Miltiadis Tenteglou was thought to have LJ'ed 28-2.75 a bit ago!
But most observers think that mark was vastly mismeasured!
They concluded it was maybe 8.20 metric!
Well, Tentaglou now HAS LJ'ed 8.48 (or 27-10), and there is no question about that one!!

Throws
Reggie Jagers hurled the Discus 217-0 awhile back!
Then he improved that to 222-6 in Chula Vista!
Payton Otterdahl had a SP mark of 70-0.25!

Yaime Perez got the Hengelo MR in the DT with her 216-3!
She beat Sandra Perkovic's 215-10!
Perky (My nickname for this A-T Great!!) won one in France, it measuring 216-10!
But it was the Golden Gala meet where she looked more like her old self!
Her 224-1 beat Yaime Perez's 219-3!

Alex Rose had a good DT in Florida, his 220-2  beating Fedric Dacres's 216-7!
Chuk Enechwechi had a SP win in Texas measuring 70-7.75!
Tom Walsh hit 72-2.25 in the SP in Tennessee!
Danielle Thomas-Dodd won the Women's SP there with 63-2.25!
Jessica Ramsey took 2nd with 61-7.50, while Raven Saunders was 3rd with 60-8.50!

Valerie Allman launched her DT out 222-3 at the USATF Showcase meet!
A meet in Belarus saw Abdelrahman Mahmoud hit 67-10.50 in the SP, getting Bahrain's National Record!
Auriol Dongmo broke her own NR of Portugal with her SP of 64-9.75!
That was in Spain!
In Austria, Lukas Weidheldinger had a DT of 222-4!

The Men's SP at the Golden Gala saw Leonardo Fabbrio win with 71-2.75!
Tom Walsh finished in 3rd with 70-5.25!
Daniel Stahl stayed steady, throwing the Discus 223-5 in Finland.
This meet also had Wojcieck Nowicki winning the HT with 265-0!
France's Quentin Bigot was 2nd with 261-6, a PR!
And Marcin Krukowski bettered his own National Record of Poland with his JT of 293-9!
He ranks 21st A-T World!

Malwina Kapron won the HT with 247-9!
Back in 3rd was the WR holder Anita Wlodarczyk, who could throw just 237-7!
Filip Mihaljevic had a SP of 71-11.75 in Croatia!
This broke his own Croatia NR!

In Georgia, Kord Ferguson PR'ed in the DT with 217-2!
Finally, we have a mark for my HS Heptathlon list!
Ariel Pedigo (Related to Tzuriel??) scored 5323 points, making her 16th A-T HS!
