Catti Rock competed at Nationals, she got through Squat, but Bench caught her....

We are really proud of her and she had a great year. 10 meets has thoroughly worn her down, but she is just a sophomore.

Thank you everyone for your support.

Boys' State Competition
Nate Caballero had a great meet. He had a 1520 total

610 squat

Nate took 7th out of 18 lifters and was 20 pounds out of medaling.  He had a great season!

Girls' State Competition
Catti Rock got the 2nd place medal at state on March 15th and had an awesome meet.
445 squat
225 bench
415 deadlift

It was an exciting day as the top 5 girls all were within 5 pounds of each other going into Deadlift.  Catti had a great meet and had a solid shot at 1st, but missed her last lift of 430 pounds on the deadlift.  It was a great day and we are super proud of her.  She has the National meet in two weeks and a chance to claim that first place prize.
