SCORESHEET
While the weather was cool, the action was not as there was some awesome competition all day long, especially in the MW and HW divisions. The throws and lifts just kept coming and the highlander format proved again to showcase the ultimate test in strength and athleticism.
LW: Loren Wright got the win. This was very impressive considering he was coming off of back surgery only a year ago.
MW: Chad Ullom and Isaac Burchett battled back and forth all day. Just when one would take the lead, the other would come back and snatch it away. The final event, heavy hammer, was the deciding factor in Chad getting the win by 1pt.
HW: Scott Tully, Josh Hettinger and Chris Anderson fought all day long through all six events. In the end, Scott pulled out a narrow victory over Josh and Chris. Very close scores on every event.
Master: Dean Ross, from Oklahoma, was our oldest competitor and also traveled the farthest to compete. Dean put on some very impressive performances.
Women: Emily Burchett was our only female competitor, but that didn't slow her down from giving it her all. Emily is a top HG thrower and showed she has plenty of SM strength also.
All in all it was a great day of competition. A huge thanks to Brenda and Ted for keeping score and things running smoothly all day. We will see you all next year.
