Battle on the Border was a huge success. The largest state competition NC has seen - 103 lifters! Thanks so much to our meet director Jon Mouzon. He puts on a fantastic show. Thanks to all our spotter and loaders and referees - couldn't have pulled off such a huge event without you.

Great lifting at the competition. North Carolina holds the Championship for the third year in a row! It was a close one but we powered out on top! Lots of state and American records were set. Go to www.carolinastrength.org for the official results. We will try and get the NC records page updated as soon as possible. I will be sending out certificates in the next couple of weeks.

What an outstanding display of our sport! Great lifting, showmanship and sportsmanship - I am so proud!

Please see "upcoming events" page for the rest of the year. We have added two more events.
