We've been working on getting Jessica more speed to the bar, and today everything came together for her. It was truly a unique thing to see, and I'm so proud of her. It was like watching a real-life high jumper, not a student or a person just trying to score points.

I think the younger kids really look up to those seniors. I'll see them sometimes gather around them during practice. Just the other day there were some throwers that I hadn't taught yet. They were picking things up and making corrections just from watching Donnie and Randall throw.
