Let me introduce myself, I am Greg Benhase founder of Onward Pole Vault Club. During High School I excelled in multiple sports achieving success in Volleyball, Wrestling, and Football. I decided to focus on Track & Field during my Junior year after placing 2nd at the State Meet in the Pole Vault with a jump of 14'6". After I finished High School I went onto college to compete in the Decathlon. I was able to compete at the National level and finished up as an All-American NCAA Division I Decathlete.
Some of my athletic accomplishments include:
In the 6 years of coaching at Hanover High School we have:
I understand the importance of learning technical proficiency, but as athletes progress I put extreme emphasis on the importance of sprint speed, jumping ability, calisthenics, and overall athletic agility. All these traits together compliment each other to develop an outstanding pole vaulter.
I value what it takes to achieve and sustain excellence at a National level. With 15+ years of Pole Vault experience between competing and coaching, let me use my discipline and understanding of success to help you achieve your athletic goals.
