EUGENE, Ore. – Indiana State senior pole vaulter Will Staggs concluded one of the best careers for an Indiana State pole vaulter Wednesday evening, placing ninth in the pole vault at the 2025 NCAA Outdoor National Championships.
Staggs cleared a mark of 5.53m (18-1.75), matching a program record he set earlier in the 2025 season at Ohio State and earning Second Team All-America accolades in the process.
He is the only men's pole vaulter in program history to make multiple national championship appearances, and one of three pole vaulters in program history to reach the national championships on multiple occasions, alongside two-time All-American Nicole Hope (2012 indoor, 2013 outdoor) and four-time national champion Kylie Hutson (2008-10 indoor, 2009-10 outdoor).
