Per TSSAA: "Prior to the sectional decathlon, competitors must have a verified jump that cleared 7' to be eligible to participate in the pole vault. Without a verified 7' jump, that competitor will not be allowed to participate in the pole vault at the sectional and will receive 0 points for the event. If the competitor does not participate in the pole vault during the sectional but still scores high enough to advance to the state decathlon, he must have cleared 7' at a regular season meet at least one week prior to the state decathlon, or he will not be allowed to participate in the pole vault in the state decathlon and will receive 0 points for the event."
