Yarisley SILVA - Cuba - Olympic silver pole vault medal.

Yarisley is pictured above during the Final where she equalled her National Record, set

by her at the 2011 Pan American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico. She and Jennifer Suhr both

cleared 4.74 at their second attempt (and both failed 4.80 three times) but Yarisley had one

other failure (at 4.45) and therefore was given second place.
