Freshman pole vaulter Kemar Jones focuses on his swing up Wednesday during practice at Lew Hertzog Track & Field Complex. Coach Brian Porter said off-season practices are geared toward establishing a base for each vaulter to build upon leading up to the season. “This is putting it together right now. Then they’ll adapt to a longer run,” Coach Porter said. “This is setting up their base for the season and getting them ready for what’s going to happen when we get started in January.” Tiffany Blanchette-Daily Egyptian
