Team PrettyStrong – Today marks the start of USAPL Raw Nationals and ATL is playing host. This is the biggest meet in USAPL history with over 1200 lifters from all over the United States competing. (That’s wild!!) Lifting runs for three days on 7 platforms at America’s Mart. Out of those 1200 lifters, a small handful were chosen to lift in the premier flight (ie the All Star prime time game) on Sunday at 3:00 pm. Becci will lift with the best of the best lifters across all gender, age and weight categories. Regardless of how she performs, this is an absolute honor and everyone should be extremely proud of how far Becci has come in only a few short years of lifting. (But we expect her to perform very well!)

PSPL Coaches, Vanessa and Amanda, have been chosen as head volunteers and Dave Bell has been picked to as a live broadcaster announcing the meet. It looks to be a great weekend for the whole team!

Cancelled – Pulling the plug on bowling night.
