Brian Murphy, a junior pole vaulter from McIntosh, set a personal record of 13.0 feet while competing in the Georgia High School Invitational at the Georgia Dome recently. Murphy placed third in the overall competition, which included the top twelve high school pole vaulters from the state. This was Brian's first formal competition and he narrowly missed clearing 13.6 feet on his third and final attempt of the evening. Murphy is expected to have a strong season for McIntosh after working with former U.S. Olympic Champion, Earl Bell, this past summer at Bell's Arkansas training camp.
