For the second week in a row, Trinity Western鈥檚 David Boyd broke the Spartans men鈥檚 pole vault record as he cleared 5.02m at the University of Washington Invitational Saturday in Seattle.
Boyd, a Victoria native, bettered the TWU all-time mark and his own personal record by one centimetre after setting the record the previous weekend in Edmonton.
At the Alberta meet, Boyd beat TWU鈥檚 previous record of 4.93m, which he set at last year鈥檚 Canada West championship, meeting the U SPORTS automatic qualification standard by clearing 5.01m to win the competition at the Golden Bear Open.
Up next, the Spartans will compete in the Harry Jerome Indoor Classic Feb. 2nd at the Richmond Olympic Oval.
