Webb All-Region in Pole Vault

May 24, 2016
 
BLUFFTON, Ohio - Bluffton junior TERRILL WEBB (Kenton) has been named All-Region by the USTFCCCA for her efforts in pole vault this season!  The U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) announced the All-Region honorees for the 2016 NCAA Division III Outdoor Track & Field season on Monday.

To be named All-Region, an athlete must either be ranked in the top-5 of an individual event in the region according to final TFRRS data or be part of a top-3 relay team.

Webb's school-record clearance (12-9.5) is currently ranked 3rd in the nation ahead of the championship meet later this week. At the indoor championship meet in March, Webb placed 6th to garner All-America honors, a position she hopes to surpass when the nation's best female vaulters meet in Waverly, Iowa, at Wartburg College on the 26th of May.

Webb, from Kenton High School class of 2013, has consistently upped her vaulting performances in her three years at Bluffton. Starting as a freshman with a best of 10' 3.25", she is now on the threshold of breaking the 13-foot barrier. Her hard work, coachable attitude and dogged determination have been the building blocks of that impressive rise in performance. Vault coach Clint Dillon (Bluffton '05/Arlington HS teacher) plays a major role in Webb's performances as well with his steady guidance and expertise. They have good communication and a coach-athlete synergy that keeps them striving whether they hit an obstacle or find success.
