Just a heads up...Triple Jump Qualification round is this Friday (August 3rd) and Finals is Sunday (August 5th)
First Olympic triple jump attempt for NDSU's Amanda Smock is a scratch.
Amanda Smock 13.43 on second attempt, putting her in 28th place in qualifying.
A 13.61 for Amanda Smock on last triple jump attempt, will not qualify for finals.
13.61 meters tranlsated is 44 feet, 7 inches, still a long way out there. Personal best is 14.18 (46 feet).
Good effort. Amanda was the only American who even qualified for the Olympics. Problem is the rest of the world is so good the #1 American was still at the bottom. Nevertheless we should still be proud. She was the best in America. Just not the best in the world

Awesome job by Amanda to win her 4th straight USA indoor National Championship. I'd have to say she is in the running for the most accomplished Bison athlete of all time. Who could top her?
