Just a reminder to everyone that 8 of our athletes will be competing at the Powerlifting Regional level meet Saturday at Sundown High School. Sundown is only about an hour away, for those of you unfamiliar. It is an easy trip from both Lubbock and Slaton.
Philip Rocha (9th place), Tyler Johnson (4th), Braxton Creager (8th), Harley Simpson (8th), David Camargo(12th), Marcial Salinas(12th), Alek Garcia(12th), and AJ (Ascencion) Garcia (12th) will all be representing the Tiger Nation.
Lifting will begin at 9am, so if you plan on going, arrive a little early to give you an opportunity for better seating. Philip & Tyler will lift on the 1st platform; Harley, Braxton & David on the 2nd platform; and Marcial, Alek, and AJ on the 3rd platform.
It is $5 entry for spectators, and Sundown will have a full concession stand available. There are also many good restaurants in Levelland only about 20 minutes away.
We have 2 boys who legitimately have a shot at being Regional Medalist’s, and 2 more who will be lifting in their last meet at Slaton Tigers. Please consider coming to support our kids, and if you cant do that, please keep them in your thoughts & prayers during this time.
