Olmsted Falls Katie Moon makes pole vault pitch to two celebrities who want to start pro track leagues [Video]

CLEVELAND, Ohio — While Katie Moon has her eyes on defending her gold medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, she also made her pitch to join growing track and field ventures.

On Tuesday, Moon, an Olmsted Falls alumna, posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, a message to former Olympic sprinter Michael Johnson and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, the husband of Serena Williams. Johnson and Ohanian are each forming pro track and field events to build off of the buzz from the Summer Olympics.

Moon made her own pitch to both on social media.

“Hey @MJGold @alexisohanian are you guys suurrreeeee you don’t want pole vault in your track leagues…,” Moon posted.

Ohanian responded with a GIF of former Mavericks owner Mark Cuban taking notes on the show “Shark Tank,” and Moon replied back to the GIF by saying, “I’d like to thank you for your consideration,” along with a salute emoji.
