Sisters set personal records in pole vault Pole vaulting is a family affair for the Patarinos, and Sunday was their day. Makenzie Patarino, 16, a senior at Lakewood High School and her younger sister, Kassidy, 14, a freshman, both set personal records Sunday at the Rocky Mountain State Games. Makenzie cleared 11 feet, 4 inches and Kassidy, who just started her pole vault career, cleared 5-5. The sisters train together daily and twice weekly with Above the Bar Pole Vault Club, and Makenzie knows Kassidy will soon catch up. “She is going to give me a run for my money pretty soon,” Makenzie said. “We go to the club together and we do workouts in the morning together.” When Kassidy first saw Makenzie soaring over the bar, she wanted to try it too. “You have to be insane to do it,” Makenzie said. “She saw me and she said, ‘Oh, that looks fun. I’m insane too, so I’ll give it a try.'” Palmer Ridge grad ready for college track career. more
