Is Pedroso still competing at that high of a level?
I believe Hartwig qualified... I never expect much from him in a championship meet, though. At least he had his eyes corrected.

Yes Pedroso is competing at the highest level. He won the LJ at last week's Pan-Am games with 8.23m against a mediaocre field. Apart from
Luiz Melis(also of Cuba) who won the Silver and closly pushed Pedroso after leading for 2 or 3 rounds with his best mark of 8.20m.
And also thankyou for correcting me on the matter of Jeff Hartwig _________________ Doubt whom you will, But never yourself.

W is only slated for 8th by T&FN. I think he is going to be going to be a big surprise to many people.
By the way, Indeurr (Robert??) your website is interesting, a bit bizarre, but interesting. I shall return.
