And Stacy beaten domestically. Should be even more incentive for the near and long term.

from the AP wire report:

The former Stanford jumper said there is no big reason for his breakthrough this season.

"I attribute it to just growing up a little bit, studying the event a little bit more, paying my dues," Stevenson said. "Slowly working my way up the ranks, paying my dues, and it's paying off this year. It's hard work. That's all it is - hard work."

and

"Dragila, who moved to Phoenix from Pocatello, Idaho, a year ago to train with Hysong's coach Greg Hull, said she's been bothered by a tight hip muscle that prevented her from running fast enough down the runway.

'I finally had a chance to work with a good therapist, but unfortunately haven't had a good week of work on it yet,' Dragila said."

It was announced at the meet last night that this is Manson's 19th year in a row of vaulting 18 feet or higher.
