Competitors: Chiadika Obinwa, Jon Ling

In his first ever in-person competition, Chiadika had huge success, making all of his lifts! On his 6 for 6 day, Chiadika went 72-75-78 in the snatch, and then 101-105-109 in the clean & jerk for a 187kg total!

After an adventurous mishap on his first lift that left the bar nearly in the laps of the referees (no one was injured!), Jon Ling came back to make his next five lifts and finish with all competition PRs! His 104/123/227 total was a 9kg improvement in the total from his last meet at the North American Open Series 1! He also took all the team records for the Men’s 81kg class!
