Tonight on KARE 11 news 6pm, the Armstrong Pole Vault Program was featured.
Derek O. 14'9
Ross W. 14'6
Brandon J. 14'6
Alicia R. 12'7
Coach Chris Milton
All were interviewed and all represented themselves, their program, their team, their school, and their sport perfectly. Each person showed NO selfishness, but were completely classy and humble while still positively sharing their competitiveness. I have never seen an interview of high school athletes who represented so well--especially when considering that the news only ever airs 1-2 lines of dialog per person!
Well Done--
--your friends at Flight Deck are proud to say we know you
.
There was an article in the Star Tribune today about the Armstrong vaulters!

AS MENTIONED EARLIER WITH THE KARE 11...IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO GET INTERVIEWED AND NOT GET MISQUOTED OR MISREPRESENTED
--AHS KIDS WEAR HELMETS ALL THE TIME--
otherwise...great positive attention for yourselves and pole vault
congrats!
