HomeMy WebLinkAbout0116 "It was intimidating, accelerating, and joyful,
especially when I got first place in my weight
class!"• Tyler Kirby
Lifting more than you weigh may seem impossible.
but for these girls it's reality. Not only did they have to
lift tons, but they also had to maintain a reasonable
weight to win in their weight class. Some girls dieted.
some exercised, and some did both. Whether they did
anything at all to keep themselves slim or not, they
were all victorious.
Within the first couple of meets, most weightlifters
won in the top three at least once. Four girls competed
in State,and two girls even broke a school record. Men
❑ should be ashamed.
