DES MOINES, Iowa — Former Baylor pole vaulter Annie Rhodes-Johnigan continues to climb up the corporate ladder, so to speak.
Rhodes-Johnigan finished fifth in the women’s pole vault final at the USA Track and Field Outdoor Championships at Drake Stadium on Sunday. Rhodes-Johnigan cleared 14-11 before missing three attempts at 15-1.
She finished fifth behind Nike’s Sandi Morris (15-9) and Katie Nageotte (15-5), Adidas pro Jenn Suhr (15-3), and unattached pro Kristen Hixson, who also went 14-11 but took fourth based on fewer overall misses.
