YCB’s Summer Throw Down

Written By stephen mason

Just a few months ago we ran an in-house meet, The YCB Summer Throw Down. We had seven athletes participate.

  • Romona Frank Competed in her first meet.

  • Nicolle Durkee broke the New England Snatch record at 69kg for her age and weight category.

  • David Monesmith and Chris Krug had great comeback meets touching weights they haven’t seen in some time.

  • Kim Monesmith had a great meet and used this as a tune up for her prep for The Masters World Championship in Finland.

  • Sarah Barlow Tested the waters to see what was possible as a tune up for The Masters World Championship in Finland.

  • Elsbeth Paige-Jeffers (PJ) was looking to improve her ranking in New England and to qualify for USAW Nationals. She Snatched 80kg and made a big Clean & Jerk of 110kg. She did in fact improve her placement and now sits in 6th overall in NE, and she did qualify for Nationals with a 190kg total as a 71kg lifter.

    Videos of the top Snatches and Clean & Jerks portion linked below.
