IFSA USA Vs. The World

by Randall J. Strossen, IronMind Enterprises, Inc. © 2007

IFSA-USA President Dione Wessels said, "It was a great contest," and it wasn't over until it was over.

"It came down to the last event of seven," Wessels said, "which was the Atlas stone load. The USA team edged team The World out with 2.5 seconds for the win on the stones and for the overall win."

"On the 105 championships," Wessesls reported, "it came down to the last event for the winner between Jared Spybrook and Scott Porter. Jared finished the log press with 3 reps and Scott 0. Jared wins the USA national 105-kg champion two years in a row. Kevin Nowack is second, and Beau Gertz is third."
