NEW ENGLAND FALL CHAMPIONSHIP

The meet turned out to be a great success. In addition to the 7 lifters competing in this event we also had a special guest, Mr. Adrian Blindt, who has competed in IAWA events in the past. It was held at Frank’s Barbell Club in East Walpole, Massachusetts.

Christopher Lestan brought along his younger brother Erik as well as his friend and lifting partner Mike Duran. These young guns were impressive to watch!

And let’s not forget the Ciavattone family who was well represented by Jeff, Joe Sr. and Frank.

It’s always a great time when we are able to get together and lift weights, cheer each other on, tell stories, and have a few laughs!

Congratulations to Jeff Ciavattone who was overall Champion of this event!

And a special thanks to Frank, Jeff, and Joe Sr. who officiated the meet.
