The following lifters went 9 for 9: Paul Mears

This event featured 64 lifters (including multiple entries – those lifters who entered more than one division) who came from the following states: MA, RI, NH, ME and MI. The event featured a multitude of quality USAPL lifters of all ages, both men and women. The event again featured a split session on Saturday with one flight in the morning and the other flight in the afternoon.

Thanks again to Rene Moyen and Next Level Fitness for hosting another successful event. Thanks also to Mike of Northeast Fitness for the continued use of his excellent facility. Thanks as always to all of our judges, spotters, loaders, table help, sponsors and everyone else who assisted with hosting this event. And of course, thanks to you – the lifters who support our USAPL events!

On a personal note, my mentor, Joe Zarella, was in attendance at our event. For those of you who don’t know who Joe was, he was the father of New England Powerlifting as well as Women’s International Powerlifting. He ran powerlifting events for over 25 years at the Nashua NH YMCA and also in Amesbury, MA. It was both an honor and a privilege to have Joe here so that we could thank him for all of his tireless and selfless efforts in promoting NE powerlifting.

In closing, I hope that everyone enjoyed their holidays and I look forward to seeing everyone in the Spring.

God Bless,

Yours in powerlifting,

Greg Kostas
