Georgia HS Boys Top 500 Millennials In The Pole Vault

Nikita Kirrilov has the highest bar in Georgia HS history, clearing 17-2 at the Coaches Invitational back in 2010. The St. Pius star went on to have a successful four-year career with Georgia Tech, graduating in 2017 with a B.S. degree in Business Administration. With the Rambling Wreck, Kirillov was a six-time All-ACC selection in the pole vault and earned Second team All-America honors during the 2014 season, finishing 13th overall at Nationals. During the 2012 calendar year, Kirillov finished first and set a new meet record at the US Junior Meet with a vault of 18-2. He qualified and placed eighth for Team USA at the IAAF World Junior Championships in Barcelona, Spain and later, competed at the US Olympic Trials in Eugene, Ore.

Oconee County track and field fans got to enjoy coming out to watch Jordan Scott soar to new heights in the Pole Vault. I was there the night he cleared 16-8 at a quad meet (and literally did it in the dark!) Scott was the first Georgia HS boy to clear 17-0 his junior year at Golden South in 2005 and is tied for #2 on the All-Time list. Born in Daytona Beach, FL, Jordan attended Oconee County HS in Watkinsville before he made the trek to Kansas University, where he earned a degree in Sport Management with a minor in Business and a Master's in Sport Management. While competing for the Jayhawks, Scott claimed seven Big 12 titles and the 2010 Outdoor NCAA Championship. Vaulting as a professional in 2013, Jordan took the USA Indoor Championship and competed at the Olympic Trials. His personal best was 18-8.75 at the Texas Relays.


Paul Malquist from Gainesville HS cleared 17-0 at the USATF Region 3 JO Championships in 2010. He still holds the Georgia Boys State Meet Record at 16-08. Malquist went on to UGA post high school and competed for the Dawgs'.
