re: Houston Nike Sparq Results.

I was impressed with that vertical as well. And it's a 5'9 kid. Imagine how high off the ground that kid was. The 2nd kid jumped 41 as well at 5'11. Impressive to me. Also I think they do it off grass/turf and just a standing jump. Difference and more impressive to me is that,in year's past at least, they jumped off the field not a platform like at the NFL combine. They may have platforms at the HS events now so my point could be moot. Jumping off the ground is much different than jumping off those platforms. Different footing and balance
