Washington ‘63

One of the greats during the transition to fiberglass poles, Sternberg came to Penn in 1963 and set a pair of meet records.  His clearance of 16' 1" won the competition, but his 16' 5" established a world record and his Carnival record lasted until 1971. A trampoline accident that summer ended a brilliant career highlighted by three world records, the first of which came at Penn.
