Kansas Star Coffman Aims For Olympic Trials
Clyde Coffman of the University of Kansas dominates in pole vault and other events. He holds a 13 ft 12 in Kansas record and surpasses the Big Six mark, with broad jump over 23 ft and shot past 45 ft. Coach Hamilton weighs keeping him in all around for now, focusing on pole vault discus and javelin while training for 1922 Olympic trials. Coffman from Ford, Kansas rose to prominence as a top high school pole vaulter in 1929. He placed second in the 1931 Illinois Relays septathlon with a high overall score. Hamilton notes Coffman’s spring weight gain aids weight-throw but hinders pole vault progression.
