For the adults, Aryn, one of our ladies, participated in her first tournament as a white belt. She was all smiles from her warm up all the way to the end of the day! She fell short of a medal this time, but we are very excited to see her potential as a competitor and a great martial artist!
In the blue belts, Kevin and Jordan took the mats on Saturday. Kevin showed great improvement this year beating a tough competitor had suffered a loss to earlier in the year by more than 15 points. He didn't make it to the medal podium but we are very excited to see his improvement as 2013 comes to a close. Keep being relentless Kevin! Jordan won by submission in his first match and fell to the sneaky baseball bat in his second. He is another competitor with great improvement, and finished with a Bronze!
Eliot took gold in his division beating a veteran black belt Samir Chantre who requested to bump up in weight to get a match. This won the division for Eliot, and placed him in the absolute tournament. He fell short by an advantage in his first match. Great job to all the competitors and team helping them get out there and compete!!!!
