CIAC Open Championship Recap: Event-by-Event Blowout

Boys Pole Vault


Meet Record: 15-4  State Record: 15-10 

There was some heartbreak in the pole vault as Matthew Bigelow first thought he had cleared 15-6 for an Open record, but there was a mistake and he had to settle for a win over Aidan O'Connor on a tie-breaker at 15-0. Bigelow is a junior, so he'll likely have more shots at both the Open and state records. Five guys cleared at 13-0, with Patrick Oatman, Tanner Badey, and Michael Bobin sharing 3rd place, Cody DeAngelo getting 6th, and Jason Bazinet in 7th.
