Lindenwold junior Egypt Bolan moved into the top spot on the New Jersey high jump performance list with a lifetime-best 5-6 clearance Wednesday at the Bubble.
Bolan had a previous PR of 5-5 from last spring at the Don Danser Relays at Rancocas Valley. This is her first indoor season so her previous indoor PR was a 4-10 from a meet at the Ott Center last month.
Since this was a Bubble meet, no field series information is available. Thanks, Bubble. You’re the worst.
Bolan’s 5-6 equals the No. 12 mark on the all-time South Jersey indoor high jump list. According to the MileSplit national database, her mark equals No. 4 in the U.S. so far this indoor season. There are 15 girls who have cleared 5-6.
