HOUSTON – Sometimes a ticket being punched to state comes down to just a few inches.
That was the case for Tomball's Rachel Maciejeski.
The then-sophomore cleared 11-feet-6 inches at the Region III-5A Meet, which ended up being four inches short of clinching a spot at state.
"It was heartbreaking getting third," Maciejeski said. "Wanting to be there at state but I've improved a lot this year and so we're hoping for good things."
The improvement has been noticeable this year.
Maciejeski set a new personal record at the Spring Relays on February 16, clearing 12-feet-10 inches, which was her first meet of the year.
Since then, the junior has reset her personal record by clearing 13-feet-4 inches at the Bluebonnet Relays on March 22.

This week on First Take, Stephen A. Smith, Brian Windhorst, and Chiney Ogwumike share their key takeaways from the Kevin Durant trade.
Stephen A. started out by saying he was happy for head coach Ime Udoka. Smith believes Udoka was the main reason this trade happened, because he doesn't believe the rest of the organization was nearly as excited about a player of Durant's age.
Smith also discusses how the trade elevates the Rockets' title hopes, as this move makes Houston true contenders.
