Evan Jager faces the water pit and talks mental lapse in steeple after 2012 USATF Oxy 2012

Evan Jager had a very smooth successful debut in the steeplechase at Mt. SAC but the 2012 USATF Oxy High Performance Meet did not show the same results. Jager, in only his second steeplechase ever, looked to be running away with a win and big PR until he reached the final water barrier. Having what he calls a "mental lapse" Jager over shot the barrier and found himself submerge in water. Evan picked himself up to finish with a PR and Olympic A standard, but he was back in 3rd with his ego a bit bruised. Watch Race Here
