Christopher Nilsen
SCHOOL: Park Hill
YEAR: Junior
SPORT: Track and field
Nilsen recorded the state’s top pole vault mark this season — an even 16 feet — en route to winning the Missouri Class 5, District 8 championship last weekend. For good measure, he added the high jump district title, too, when he cleared the bar at 6 feet, 2 inches.
