TIERRAWATCH: University Place's Tierra Crockrell Nabs Three Gold Medals at Oregon Meet

Tierra Crockrell's mother, Tricia, offers some video clips of her daughter's performances this month.

Just got this message from Tricia, the mother of University Place track-and-field star Tierra Crockrell:

I finally downloaded the video of her farthest jump this year.  This jump was at the USATF Region 13 meet in Bend, Oregon on July 7.  Tierra jumped 5.27m or 17' 3 1/2".  She was 1 1/2 inches shy of the world record for her age group.

This past weekend at Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon at the Track City Classic, Tierra brought home 3 gold medals in the 100m, 80m hurdles and the long jump.  She PR'd in the hurdles and here is the race.
