Overall, no matter whether it was a win or a loss, I saw some real good grappling from our folks today. Tournament Jiu-Jitsu is a whole different animal. Grappling for points, with a time limit, was a new experience for most.

I wanted to recognize the accomplishments of those who placed today.

Gi Divisions:
Carlos Barreda - 1st Place (Super Featherweight)
Rob Bieber – 2nd Place (Middleweight)
Andy Mclaughlin – 2nd Place (Lightweight)

No Gi Divisions:
Andy Mclaughlin – 2nd Place (Lightweight)
