Lift for Leroy RD

MEET RESULTS –
Lift for Leroy Record Day
New member Jeff Rigby sets the tone with a big bent press
“Lift for Leroy” is over and done and was a great success. I feel like we boosted Big Leroy’s spirits enough to avoid another one of those sympathy “throw yourself down the stairs” episodes this time around. We started off with the Postal Championship lifts. 10 members participated in this portion of the meet. There was some fantastic lifting, but I will leave that part to Denny’s write-up for that meet.
Once we completed the three lifts for the Postal Championship, we started in with the “Lift for Leroy” record day. Eleven lifters completed at least one record lift in this portion of the meet. There were many national and world records broken. I would like to thank everyone who supported this meet. We had lifters from age 7 to age 77. We had local lifters and lifters from as far away as Utah. (I would really like to thank Jeff Rigby making the pilgrimage to the Turney area. He brought some real old time all-round flair with classic lifts such as the bent press and the turkish get-up) The camaraderie was fantastic, the day went smooth, and the lifting was stout.
I would like to mention that the youth infusion into the KCSTRONGMAN all-round club has been absolutely refreshing. Nikolai Lucht, age 7, just joined. He is the son of Mike Lucht who is a long time KCSTRONGMAN member from the old strongman days. That brings us to 3 lifters under 10. KCSTRONGMAN can be credited with reducing the mean age of USAWA membership by like 50 years!!! Aye, but I digress.
