GSW @ the Auckland BJJ open
Ok some quick results from yesterdays competition in Auckland:
White under 74kg:
1st Rob Long
2nd Adan Tijerina
Blue under 74kg:
1st Jonathan Bares
2nd Michael Hourigan
Blue under 94kg:
1st Hemi Pou
Ripped: Kupu Vanisi:
Kupu should have had silver in the white open but as the whole day was run so poorly he was robbed in his division.
Congrats to Cam and Dan for their efforts as well.
I know they are both pretty disappointed but as we all know it’s pretty difficult to go out there and win your first comp of the bat.
Dan was pretty much against the ref in his fight as the guy wasn’t even looking at the match, so he was robbed.
Cam did good in his fight but knows where he went wrong and what things need to be worked on.
It was a good day and everyone did us proud, as they always do.
We have a great bunch of guys and a fantastic attitude to our training which I think clearly shines through when we compete and interact with other clubs.
I still believe that I’m a munter and my fear is that that is being passed onto you guys, but having watched the attitudes, skills and actions of other schools I can safely say we are doing very well, thank you very much.
Also for a club that apparently has a reputation of having mostly Big “Strong guys” it was our lightweights that tore through the opposition.And our big “Strong Guy’s” who were some of the least munterish.
Well done to all the GSW crew for making the effort to get to Auckland and have a go.
Jonny and Miguel in the final for the under 74kg Blue
