Newcomer of the year-Runner up: Greg Cook
By Eric Todd
In the National awards nominations for 2017, Greg Cook was voted runner up in the newcomer of the year category. Since Al figured I would see Greg before he would, he gave me the plaque to present to Greg on behalf of the USAWA. I took the opportunity to do so before lifting commenced at the Old Time Strongman Championship. Greg was the Old Time Strongman Champion is 2017, besting several former champions. This probably had something to do with his winning this award. Congrats to Greg for this well deserved recognition!
