Seagren Near Indoor Vault Record After Sleep Deprivation

Toronto crowds watched Bob Seagren, a 20-year-old USC sophomore, nearly break the indoor pole vault record at Maple Leaf Games after a red-eye flight and only four hours sleep. He cleared 17-4 but struck the bar with one arm as it rose past midnight, leaving the attempt short of the standard. Seagren endured a long trip from Los Angeles, landing at 6 a.m. local time and facing a sleep-deprived night that hardly dimmed his drive to push the mark.
