gozips19 Posted January 7, 2015 Report Posted January 7, 2015 He will be our first Zip to win an Olympic medal. http://www.cleveland.com/sports/college/index.ssf/2015/01/university_of_akron_pole_vault.html 1 Quote
ZippyRulz Posted January 11, 2015 Report Posted January 11, 2015 Agree. Dude just keeps getting better. Quote
MDZip Posted February 1, 2015 Report Posted February 1, 2015 I know track and field isn't a heavily followed sport, but Shawn Barber is pretty amazing. Won yet another high-profile event by jumping over 19 feet. I remember when the world record was 19 feet. Incredible. Quote
ZachTheZip Posted February 7, 2015 Report Posted February 7, 2015 He just set a new NCAA record of 19' 3.5". Just ridiculous. Quote
The Hip Zip Posted February 11, 2015 Report Posted February 11, 2015 Akron's best kept secret, All of Zip track and field for that matter. 1 in 500 in this town may have a clue as to how great this kid is. 1 Quote
MDZip Posted February 17, 2015 Report Posted February 17, 2015 So he broke his own national record again and was named National Field athlete of the week for the second week in a row. Anybody else have the feeling he can actually clear 20 feet but is only going to do it a little bit at a time? :-) 1 Quote
mes102 Posted April 14, 2015 Report Posted April 14, 2015 I know it's not Barber, but Allie Plybon, sister of Lady Zips basketball athlete Hannah Plybon, reached 11'6. Ties her school record. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10153225444283582&set=vb.229531723581&type=2&theater 2 Quote
