Bob Brunner benches 534 at the World Cup
on August 2nd in Oklahoma City. Bob
became the first man to bench over 500 lbs
from North Dakota in a NASA sanctioned
meet. Great job, Bob!!
M3 lifters Keith Berger, Steve Harris and almost M3
lifter Gary Clock all had good days at the Can Am meet
The 2008 Can Am powerlifting meet was rather small but we had some very good lifters
competing. New comers Matt Reed and Marshall Johnson lifting in Unequipped
powerlifting set several state records. Matt's 562 deadlift was really easy, 600 is on the
way.  Marshall had a great 369 raw bench.We had two M3 lifers that showed that 60
year olds  can lift. Keith Berger from Grand Forks and Steve Harris from Sidney,Mt  
both put on a good show. Gary Clock had 3 personal all time best and two American
records. His 457 bench and 1019 push/pull set new American standards M2 242 lb class.
Young Josiah Roise did an outstanding 286 raw bench at 165. He is only 17 years old.
Big Bob Brunner broke two state power sports records with 181 lb curl and real easy 650
deadlift.
Dave Gowan tied in state record curl with a fine 165 lbs.
We held the meet at the beautiful new Minot YMCA weightroom. You have see this
place to believe it. Many thanks to Norm Judd for putting on another fine meet.
We had great judging with Norm Judd, Brad Weber & Bill Johnson.  Our spotter/loaders
were outstanding: Adam Zietlow and Andrew Gessner, Great job,guys!
Our ladies at the scoring table again did a fine job.  Doreen Clock was the announcer, as
she been for over 30 years in ND meets.  Kathie Eslinger was our official score keeper
and Jenn Kegley ran the computer scoring system. Plus Kathie & Jenn also took
pictures and movies. Great job, ladies.
Kathie Eslinger, Doreen Clock and Jenn Kegley did a
great job working on Saturday. Thanks for all you do!!
