The comp 2 event has three lifts, squat, bench press and the dead-lift. Awards are given for each lift, plus the combination of the three. John took gold in the squat, silver in both the dead-lift and bench and had a higher combination score in all three to take home the grand daddy gold medal for the combination! It was an exciting and emotion day at the power-lifting venue!
John is coached by Angie Ramos, who was magnificent in leading John to his championship status!
We are all looking forward to more fabulous performances from Team Washington athletes tomorrow as we will see Rico Morales and Dina Tallman begin their powerlifting competitions.
Also on Tuesday, the bowlers and unified soccer begin competing for medals - so we are bound to have more exciting results to come!
Stay tuned - we are having a blast in Lincoln, Nebraska!
