Powerlifting
Our boys and girls powerlifting teams lead by Coach Dills and Coach Nichols open up the season at Honey Grove. Both girls and boys had successful meets with newcomers learning the ins and outs of an official meet and our veterans picking up where they left off last year. Seniors Leo Zapata matched his Regional total from a year ago in meet 1 and Justin McBride was a scratched deadlift away from the state total. Our teams will travel to Paris Chisum and Whitewright in the next two weeks before we host our meet to gear up for regionals.
