Several Hokie pole vaulters will begin their 2009 track and field campaigns, competing unattached at the Liberty Kick Off in Lynchburg, Va., on Thursday.

Senior Yavgeniy Olhovsky, as well as juniors Hunter Hall, Joe Davis, Michael Miller and Jared Jodon will compete on the men’s side, while junior Elise Birnbaum and freshmen Emma DeJarnette and Leigh Allin will vault in the women’s competition. 

Former Hokies Brian Mondschein, Adam Bingaman and Erin Mahoney will also take part in the pole vault at the Liberty Kick Off. The event is scheduled to begin at 6:45 p.m.

All Hokie athletes are competing unattached, meaning they will pay their own way at the meet, will not be representing Virginia Tech and the results do not count toward NCAA Championship competition.
