Developing Her Skills in Freshman Year
Allison knew that to maintain a high level she was going to need to push herself to train hard and get better at her craft. In her freshman year, she took things to a whole new level, which paid off in a major way when she started breaking her own records. She continued to raise the bar over time, eventually clearing 12 feet and 8 inches, followed by 13 feet. This is somewhat more impressive than her U.S title-winning jump from when she was only fifteen.

As soon as she entered senior year, the pole vaulting sensation had a lot to juggle. From studies, to family time and retaining a rigorous training schedule, she was quick to learn about the power of multitasking and prioritizing. Nothing was to slow her down, however, and as indicated by how quickly she was working through her leagues and collecting medals, it was clear that she would soon be in the running for national titles. She topped her pole vaulting record once again that year, clearing a staggering 13 feet and 6 inches.
