Eetu Viitala at NCAA National Track Championships

Eetu Viitala of Boise State jumped 23-feet, 10 3/4 inches at the Championships in Iowa, which puts him in 10th place after one jump.  He will need to be in the Top 9 to advance to the finals.

Update at 5:05 p.m.--(no other media outlets or websites have reported this information.)  Eetu fouled on his second attempt.  He has just one jump left to get at least 24-4 1/2.

Update at 5:21--Viitaala jumped 23-11 3/4, bettering his first mark but still short of 9th place.  He finishes 11th in the nation.
