LSU pole vaulter, Rachel Laurent, has many goals, like the 2012 Olympics, but this one caught our attention:

“Once she can gain a little more power, her speed is going to increase, and that will allow her to get on stiffer poles,”

Yes, we know what you’re thinking. We’re 12 years old.

One more picture after the jump.

    OK, one more…we tend to cave to peer pressure.

    I think she’s all set in the pole department. Shes dating 2008 World Junior Champion Hammer Thrower and 2010 NCAA indoor Champion Walter Henning.
