ELLENSBURG, Wash. - A Central Washington University pole vaulter blames Delta Airlines for losing a crucial piece of her equipment and preventing her from competing for a national title.
Athlete Kati Davis believes the airline's mistake robbed her of winning what would've been her third All-American title on Friday.
"And so I was at my national meet with no coach and no poles and I had one borrowed pole that was too small," she says.
