2025 Lift-a-thon Results and Photos
The annual Steve Studer Memorial Lift-a-thon was held recently in the WHS gym . It was surely an energetic and muscle-burning event, yet just one more step to the finish line as the Tigers prepare for the 2025 football season. Once again, Strength Coach Dan Studer did a fantastic job of organizing and conducting the event.
Three lifts were performed by each participant: clean lift, bench press and squat. Each lifter selected his preferred weight for each lift and then attempted as many lifts as he could until his arms or legs gave out. A composite score was then used to determine the winner of each of eleven weight classes based on the total weight lifted and the number of reps (max. 10). Achievement medals were then awarded to the top three lifters in each category. Here are the winners:
- 140 lb. weight class – Trimble
- 150 lb. weight class – Greg Corsale (Jr.)
- 160 lb. weight class – Chayce White (Jr.)
- 170 lb. weight class – Eli Moore (Sr.)
- 180 lb. weight class – Boshop Cupp (Sr.)
- 190 lb. weight class – Anthony Hoover (Jr.)
- 200 lb. weight class – Savior Owens (Jr.)
- 215 lb. weight class – Kavon Sankey (Jr.)
- 230 lb. weight class – Allen
- Heavy weight class – Owen Sirgo (Sr.)
- Super heavyweight class – Marcus Garner (Jr.)
