Scott Huffman

Scott Huffman (born 30 November 1964 in Quinter, Kansas) is a retired American pole vaulter. He had a very successful NCAA record at the University of Kansas. He won the American national championships in 1993, 1994 and 1995.[1] His personal best was 5.97 meters, achieved in June 1994 in Knoxville. The result placed him third on the top performers list that season.

Huffman is notable for his occasional and unpredictable use of a one-legged straddle (similar to a high jumper) method to clear the bar.
