FAYETTEVILLE -- University of Arkansas senior Lexis Jacobus, a four-time NCAA champion in the pole vault and 2016 Olympian for the United States, didn't compete Friday in the John McDonnell Invitational on Friday because of back spasms, but the Razorbacks still dominated the event.
The Razorbacks took six of the top eight spots in the pole vault, led by senior Tori Hoggard -- a four-time All-American and Jacobus' twin sister -- winning with a clearance of 14 feet, 6 1/4 inches.
"It just shows the depth that [assistant coach] Bryan [Compton] has created in the vault," Arkansas women's Coach Lance Harter said.
