Decathlon History Is His in the Making

At 24, Ashton Eaton has no major decathlon title to his name, but he won the silver at the world championships last summer, behind his U.S. teammate Trey Hardee, and is among the favorites for the London Games.

At each meet this season, Marra has taken Eaton on his own to the pole vault pit and set the bar at a challenging height.
