East Kentwood alum Trevor Stephenson almost missed his shot at the @usatf nationals but a last minute meet at his alma mater punched his ticket to Eugene. "I'm just excited to get there and jump against the big dogs" @MSU_TFXC fox17online.com/sports/west-…

Big News: @TStephenson30 of @MSU_TFXC became the 14th Michigander in history to join the 18-foot club in winning the Meyo Inv pole vault. He's the first new guy in the club in 6 years. Thanks for ending the drought! (His 18-2.5/5.55 PR makes him =5 ever indoors)
