The Son Light Power Tennessee State Fair Bench Press/Deadlift Championship was held September 10, 2011 at the Creative Arts Center in Nashville, Tennessee. Thanks to Scott Jones and his staff at Special Events for once again hosting this competition.

We had a small turnout but some great lifting, with several new records set. In the assisted bench press event, Denise Timbs, at a bodyweight of just 152, hit her first 300 bench,

which also broke the existing state record for the open women's 165 class. Shane Corbitt won at novice/242 with 355, just missing his final attempt with 405. Joe Carter got his first official 600 bench with his win at submaster/275! Joe's been looking for that number for quite a while. Scott Granstaff won at shw with his opener of 500.

The big show, though, was the amazing Harley Timbs. Taking the win at 40-44/275, Harley broke the SLP state, national and world record there with 800! This represents the all-time greatest lift by any master, in any federation in the world!

Jeff Weaver broke the state record at 45-49/275 with his personal best 670. Fred Penick broke his state record from last year's competition by 65 pounds, finishing with 440 at p&f/50-54/220. Fred also took the open master class as well. In the open division Jeff Weaver won again at 275.

For the raw lifters it was Jeff Luna at submaster/275 with 300 while seventy year old William Hostetter set the mark at 70-74/198 with a great 260 final attempt. Naturally, Harly Timbs won the best lifter award.

In the deadlift competition Randall Jackson won at junior/198 with 405. At submaster/275 best lifter Joe Carter pulled a 740 state record for the win while Jeff Luna finished second with 410. Andrew Lynch dropped down to the 198 class at 45-49. breaking the state record there with 565. Brian Gardner, a great master bencher, pulled for the first time ever, finishing with a solid 560 pr @ 45-49/275. Fred Penick broke the state record again at p&f/50-54/220 with his first ever 500, taking the 50-54/220 class as well. Our final lifter was Colin Sadler, who won at open/220 with a strong 630 personal best.

Thanks to my son Joey Latch for all he does at the meets and to all the others who helped with the loading, spotting and judging. Thanks also to Wendy Gardner for serving as our trophy girl. See you all again next year!

Best Lifter - JEREMY HINES                                                             *Son Light Power national record

The 2011 Son Light Power National Bench Press/Deadlift Championship really turned out to be a national "raw" meet, with the exception of one lifter. Held on September 24, 2011 at Son Light Power Gym in Tuscola, Illinois, the turnout was small but the lifting was great.

For the full power meet Jordan Hines posted all new national raw records for the junmior/198 class. Jordan finished with a 500 squat, 370 bench and a 575 deadlift for a great 1445 total. Matt Organ came up from southern Illinois to break all of the records at submaster/275, which he did in style. Matt hit a 550 squat along with a 450 bench and a 585 deadlift for a new total of 1585. Matt Muccigrosso set all new marks for his class, 50-54/198 with a 425 squat, 350 bench and a great 545 pull for a 1320 total. John Dougherty, also in that age group, lifted at 220, establishing new records there as well. John's 465 squat, 225 bench and 455 deadlift gave him a 1145 total.

Our only equipped lifter was Richard Carlson, who won at 60-64/198. Richard finished with a 405 squat, 320 bench and 400 deadlift for a 1125 total, all of which were new national records.

Maj. Aaron Boyer had a great day as well, with all new records at police & fire/220. Aaron finished with a 445 squat, 355 bench and a 500 pr deadlift for a great 1300 total. Our final raw lifter was twenty-five year old Jeremy Hines, who just decided to do the full meet at the last moment. Lifting in the open/275 class, Jeremy, who weighed in at 262, hit a deep 670 squat, an easy 480 bench and a strong 710 pull for a 1860 total! All new national raw record for the best lifter! (As a side note, all of the lifters squatted below parallel...no high squats here!)

In the curl event we had one lifter, Molly Tolson. Molly, who is a national champion bencher, hit a national record curl of 75 @ 40-44/165.

For the raw benchers, Nancy Stevenson set the mark at 60-64/198 with 75. Pete Oye got a national record at novice/165 with 350 while Mike Medley won at 181 with 260. Matt Muccigrosso set the mark at 50-54/198 with 350 while Bruce Stevenson finished with that same weight at 60-64/shw for still another new SLP national record. A new lifter to the sport, seventy-four year old Ian Scott, did well at 70-74/181, setting the record there with 260.

In the assisted division best lifter Josh Smith hit a new record at novice/165 with 360. Tom Reece finished with 380 @ 40-44/220 while Richard Carlson took the 60-64/198 class with 320.

Moving to the deadlift event, Scott Hubbard set the national mark at novice/181 with 400 while Brandon Herrin did the same at 198 with 445. Matt Muccigrosso set the record at 50-54/198 with 545, but it was Jeremy Hines once again who finished as the best lifter, pulling a great 710 national record @ open/275.

Thanks to my son Joey Latch for doing another great job of setting up the platform, spotting and loading. Thanks also to our side judges Molly and Keith Tolson, who did a fantastic job. See you all again next year!
