When people think about the beginning of the women's pole vault, they think of one name, and that name is Stacy Dragila.  I remember growing up looking at her as the absolute and almighty queen of the pole vault.  She was tough, determined, and not afraid of anything.  After speaking to her on this podcast, I have come to find her to also be incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and down to earth.  What a pleasure to share a conversation with a true legend of the pole vault, Stacy Dragila. Want to help support the One More Jump Podcast?

17.  Stacy Dragila

At the 2000 Sydney games, women were able to compete in the Pole Vault at the Olympics for the first time. It followed the emergence of a generation of vaulters led by America’s Stacy Dragila, who proved that women could master an event traditionally regarded as too physically demanding and too technically difficult for them. Stacy Dragila went on to win the first women’s Olympic gold medal in her discipline. She talks to Simon Watts.PHOTO: Stacy Dragila competing in 1999 (Getty Images)
