"Flanders (Dutch: Vlaanderen (help·info), French: Flandre) is one of the regions and communities of Belgium and also a historical geographical region located in parts of present-day Belgium, France and the Netherlands. The demonym for Flanders is Flemish, while someone from Flanders is a Fleming. Brussels is the capital of Flanders though not fully under its jurisdiction." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flanders

Inika McPherson (Cal 2010) placed fifth in the high jump at 6-0, a season best. Her personal record is 6-4.

"McPherson qualified for her first World Championships team after a third-place finish at the 2011 USA Outdoor Championships. During her senior year at University of California, Berkeley, she claimed her best finish at an NCAA meet with a fourth-place finish at the Indoor championships and topped the PAC-10 Outdoor Championship as well. In 2007, McPherson finished fourth at USA Outdoors, barely missing the World Outdoor team. McPherson was a 1.88m/6-2 jumper before enrolling at Cal. In 2005, she was the NSIC Indoor champion and in 2004, she finished second at USA Junior Outdoors and competed for Team USA at World Juniors. During her time at Cal she majored in African American studies."
