Ithaca College senior Dom Mikula claimed his fifth career All-America honor – the most in program history – on Saturday at the 2022 NCAA Outdoor Track & Field Championships. He finished fifth in the pole vault at 4.95 meters (16 feet, 2.75 inches). Mikula began his competition at 4.65 meters and cleared the bar on the first try and did the same at his second height (4.80 meters). The bar then moved to 4.90 meters, which was cleared on Mikula's second attempt, which secured his spot on the podium. He moved into the top five and ultimately third overall after clearing 4.95 meters on his third attempt.
