NORMAL — Energy pent up for months by the pandemic was set free by boys and girls in Sunday’s age 17-19 division of the AAU National Pole Vault Invitational at the Flying Dragons Field Event Training Center.
University High School senior Colton Naffziger cut loose as well as anyone, first clearing a lifetime best of 15 feet before going one bar better with a clearance of 15-6 to place second behind Kansas recruit Andrew Saloga. Both went out at 16-0, but Saloga won based on two fewer misses at 15-6.
