Hello my name is Kurtis McCormick I am from eudora Kansas and come from a family that doesn’t know anything about college and definitely knows less about being an athlete. I have come to love pole vaulting and ever that has to do with it I love watching videos online and I love even more vaulting in person. It wasn’t until my junior year that I learned how much I really do love it though because as they say you don’t know what you have until it’s gone. My junior year I got my back hurt badly and the withdrawals from vaulting were the worst experience I have ever had to go through which is why I’m determined to get on a college team and succeed.
