Congrats goes to RANDY SMITH for being selected as the USAWA Lifter of the Month for the month of July. Randy is a long time USAWA competitor and is always present at our National Championships. I first competed with Randy at the 2003 Nationals in Youngstown, Ohio. He seems to be lifting as well now as he did then! Randy has had many TOP TEN finishes at Nationals but this past month he won the OVERALL BEST LIFTER AWARD. This is the highest honor a lifter in the USAWA can achieve during the year, and Randy is more than deserving. He is a technician and has perfected the lifting movements in the All Rounds.
