Hrcek breaks SPU pole vault record
Mountlake Terrace High School graduate Mason Hrcek, now a freshman on the Seattle Pacific University men’s track and field team, made school history when he broke the indoor record in the pole vault.
Hrcek, competing in just his second collegiate meet, cleared a height of 15 feet, 5 3/4 inches last Saturday at the UW Indoor Preview in Seattle. His mark bested the previous indoor record of 14-11 set by Chris Randolph in 2006 and matched by Ray Zoellick in 2011 and 2012. The school’s outdoor record is 15-11.
“I did not see that coming,” Hrcek told SPU’s website. “Coming into the meet, I’d had a pretty crappy practice and all that. I had a twist in my leg and had some shin issues. But I surprised myself. I was working through it today. I jumped over bars I never thought I’d get over.”
Hrcek’s mark placed him eighth in the competition that featured NCAA Division I athletes.
