Skipper would have qualified for the event fi nal if he cleared the baron one of his first two tries. Strong crosswinds proved to be the deciding factor and made things diffi cult for the pole vault competitors, who had a short one minute window between each attempt, Skipper said. "The crosswinds were really bad," said Skipper, who was the youngest competitor in the field at 19 years old. "It was difficult for the time we had to jump to get a good wind. "When guys are only jumping 17-8 and making the final, it's indicative of the wind. It screwed me up just like everybody else. When that happens, you're not able to relax." Skipper said he will have to get used to the conditions in Sacramento as the NCAA Championships will "I have to learn to jump in windy crosswind condi tions like this and find meets during the regular season that emulate Sacramento... NCAA's are going to be here for three years and I won't be able to control the conditions then, either." - Tommy Skipper Oregon Pole Vaulter emanate from Alex G. Spanos Sports Complex at Sacramento State Univer sity in 2005, 2006 and 2007. "1 have to learn to jump in windy crosswind conditions like this and find meets during the regular season that emulate Sacramento," Skipper ■said. "NCAA's are going to be here for three years and I won't be able to con trol the conditions then, either." The Sandy native will now look forward to time off after a record breaking 2004 season, which saw him become the NCAA and Pac-10 champion in the pole vault. Skipper also won the Pac-10 decathlon in his first time ever competing in the event. In late May, he also broke the school and Pac-10 records in the pole vault at 18-10 1/4. Skipper said he will now enjoy some time off to forget about his per formance in Sacramento and then prepare for next season. "I can't worry about (the Trials)," Skipper said. "I have to go out and jump higher next year and do better at the big meets. That means I'll have to work harder in practice to help meet those goals." a lexta m @ da i lyemera Id. co m DRFfiflN DAILY FMFRAI nyourinaePencients^uewsPap^ Welcome Students and Parents Save Money, Save Time with U O Bookstore.com EDUCATIONAL PRICING ON COMPUTERS.
