He was down 1 wazaari to zero with 20 seconds left. I told Phi he had 20 seconds left, get his grip and throw. With time almost running out he made a nice tai otoshi to score ippon at the buzzer!












We are very proud of all the competitors who fought hard today!
Tod Myagmarsuren - Gold
Urnuuke Myagmarsuren - Gold

Shin Takagi - Gold
Phi Nguyen - Silver
Fernando Kowalski - Bronze
Madelyn Lee - Bronze
Steven Torres - Bronze
G Quoc Dao - 7th place

Gary, Kevin and Seigo were in large brackets with bigger kids but they performed very well.
It was the first tournament for Madelyn and Kevin with very little preparation time so it was a good experience for them to learn how much different it is to fight a real match in front of a large crowd.
Thank you to all the parents and friends who came out to support our team!
