5/11-Lindsay Regan clears 13-2, new US#1 and just 2\" below the US soph class record @ LVC Champs @

Holding the pole at 12-4 on a 13\' 150 Carbon, Lindsay Regan came within a half-inch of the PA state record set by Emily Tharpe in 2001, and 2\" of the US sophomore class record, clearing 13-02 from 7 lefts to win the Lehigh Valley Conference Championship at Allen HS in Allentown. And it\'s the new US#1 vault, with only one other girls over 13. It marks a two-inch improvement on her 13-0 mark May 5th at the Liberty Last Chance Meet in Bethlehem. Observers said she had room to spare, and nearly made 13-04.5 on both her second and third attempts in a cross wind.
