Okay - final tally - 23 are still in as the bar goes up to 1.81 (5' 11¼"). Josie has met all expectations by equaling her lifetime best. Anything further would be a huge bonus.

Josie misses 3x at 1.81. That was the height needed for Eugene, as exactly 12 cleared.
Great season for Josie.

Triple Jump is underway - wind is gusty, then calm, then gusty. It can wreak havoc with one's run up.

Ginnie finishes her season with 12.03 meters (39' 5¾"). She's just a sophomore, so I think she will have some upside in the future.

That concludes the Rice activity at the West Regional.
We've got a couple of weeks until the 5 Owls head to Eugene for the NCAA Championships.
