Federal Hocking's Cory Vales is still doing High Jump at the University of Findlay. Most recent meet, the GLIAC Outdoor Track and Field Championships up in Michigan, he placed second with a jump of 7' 1/4". Don't believe that is his career best, but he's still working hard at it.

[noreply66]

has anyone heard how Westbrook from Marietta and Smith from Chillicothe are doing as Ohio State?

[Steely Dan]

Smith has redshirted this year and it appears that Westbrook is no longer part of the OSU track program, he's no longer on the roster.
