Jennifer

I admire your accomplishments and in such a short time. You are a role model for others--showing them what hard work, practice, perserverance, and positive attitude can accomplish.

Best wishes to you! I'll be watching and cheering you on.

Regardless of whether you win or lose, at least you will try and do your best. That is what's most important.

Godspeed.

Ya know, you're not supposed to have athletic talent and be pretty, too. Just too hard on the average gals. Jen, you have a wonderful smile. Let's hope we all get to see it with tears streaming down as you stand on center podium at the Olympics! More best wishes!

Jen was named USA Track & Field's May Athlete of the Month after breaking her own US record by vaulting 16'3/4" at the Adidas Track & Field Classic. She was selected as the Team USA Athlete of the meet, presented by VISA.
Next is the Olympic Trials in Oregon. We think she will be vaulting in the finals on July 6, which should be on TV. Qualifying competition is before that, but due to her being the top ranked vaulter in the trials, I think she doesn't have to qualify.

Tal,
Thanks so much for the update. Any ideas on what I can do to see this. I only have the 12 dollar cable and don't get USA channel. Thanks again for all the great research.
