From: Hunter Henzler
1st of all-
I am humbled and honored to have been a part of our first powerlifting meet to be hosted in Slaton. To all the workers, volunteers, parents, employees, and the community of Slaton as a whole- thank you for helping this meet go on- in the end it’s all about the kids, and this meet was a huge benefit to them. On behalf of myself, and on behalf of the kids in our program- thank you!
I also want to say thank you to our Administration team for supporting me in hosting this meet, even in spite of the weather. As a community we pulled it off, and I sincerely want to thank them for that as well.
Results:
Our team finished in a close 3rd behind Sundown and Levelland, but we had the most medalists for our team on the year (12 kids!, a “team” is 11 for the record), and also had multiple boys qualify for the Regional meet (In Sundown, March 14th.) I will send another email about that shortly (I know y’all can’t wait)
