The following lifters went 9 for 9:

 

Sonja McKinlay, Zachary Abrams

 

 

This event featured 60 lifters how came from the following states: MA, RI, CT, NH, ME, and DE. The lifting was excellent once again as the results will attest to the quality of the lifters who compete in the USAPL. This event featured a split session on Saturday with one flight in the morning and the other flight in the afternoon. Even lifters who came by themselves had no problem having a fellow lifter assist them their gear and with words of encouragement during their attempts. This is what separates the USAPL events from others.

 

Thanks to the former RI State Chairman David Roderick, who's wife lifted in the event but found time to assist our sight-impaired athlete during all of his attempts. It was most appreciated. Thanks again to Rene Moyen and Next Level Fitness for hosting yet another successful event. Thank you also to Mike of Northeast Fitness for the continued use of his facility. Thanks to all of the judges, spotters, loaders, table help and everyone else who assisted with hosting this event. And of course, thanks to all of the lifters who support our USAPL events - these meets are for you.

 

On a personal note, this event marked my 25th consecutive year of running powerlifting events. I ran my first contest back in may of 1979 at 18 years of age with the help of my "Powerlifting father" Joe Zarella. For those of you who are to young to remember, Joe Zarella ran powerlifting events for at least 25 years and kept New England powerlifting going until others could pick-up the torch! Joe was the "unofficial" father of Women's powerlifting back in the 1980's and also brought powerlifting some television coverage as well. Without Joe's help and guidance, I could never have done this alone. And now, with Rene Moyen's help and the members of Next Level, I look forward to at least another 25 years!!

 

God Bless,

 

Yours in powerlifting,

 

Greg Kostas
