Outdoor Track and Field DIVISION I
DIVISION I 103 Outdoor Track and Field DIVISION I 2001 Championships OUTDOOR TRACK Highlights Volunteers Are Victorious: Tennessee used a strong performance from its sprinters to edge TCU by a point May 30-June 2 at Oregon. The Volunteers earned their third title with 50 points, as the championship-clinching point was scored by the 1,600-meter relay team in the final event of the meet. Knowing it only had to finish the event to secure the point to break the tie with TCU, Tennessee’s unit passed the baton careful- ly and placed eighth. Justin Gatlin played the key role in getting Tennessee into position to win by capturing the 100- and 200-meter dashes. Gatlin was the meet’s only individual double winner. Sean Lambert supported Gatlin’s effort by finishing fourth in the 100. His position was another important factor in Tennessee’s victory, as he placed just ahead of a pair of TCU competitors. Gatlin and Lambert composed half of the Volunteers’ 400-meter relay team that was second. TCU was led by Darvis Patton, who was third in the 200, fourth in the long jump and sixth in the 100. He also was a member of the Horned Frogs’ victorious 400-meter relay team. TEAM STANDINGS 1. Tennessee ..................... 50 Colorado St. ................. 10 Missouri........................ 4 2.

Improvement of Peak Performance in the Pole Vault
Improvement of Peak Performance in the Pole Vault Submitted to Strategies: A Journal for Sport and Physical Educators Introduction The issue of peak performance at the elite level of pole vaulting is many faceted involving physical, technical, and psychological components. The issue of peak performance, stated in the simplest terms, refers to the vaulter performing well under extreme pressure. Many subscribe to the general theory that under the pressure of championship competition one third of the field will not achieve the performance that brought them to the competition, one third of the field will equal the performance, and one third of the field will exceed the performance that they brought into the contest. The following are factors which are beneficial to achieving peak performances. Consistency Developing consistency on several levels is paramount to continued development and confidence under competitive pressure. Consistency in the coaching relationship, training and technical methodology, and training environment become increasingly important to maximize performance at the highest level. The pole vaulter’s peak performance years are generally between the ages of the early 20s to the early 30s due to the extreme technical and physical nature of the event. The preceding five to 10 years usually exhibit the formative development of constructing a consistent model of technique. The coach gains understanding of the athlete’s strengths and weaknesses both physically and emotionally during this period. This period of time is critical to allow development of understanding of what Vitaly Petrov describes as the “culture of movement” and allows for the introduction and indoctrination of the coaches technical model and terminology to the athlete.
