Events

Exciting and competitive pole vaulting events designed for athletes of all levels.

In Loving Memory of Coach Pat Wilson

The Wilson Memorial Street Vault

Every year, vaulters from across the region gather to celebrate the life and legacy of Coach Pat Wilson — the coach who shaped generations of Wichita pole vaulters, including our own Coach Tyler Knight during his record-setting years at Wichita State.

Athletes are grouped according to their personal best heights, ensuring a competitive and fair experience for all participants — with music all day and a community atmosphere Pat would have loved.
