Kyle Snyder, at 19 years of age - the youngest American ever to win a Gold medal at the senior level, comes home with a gold medal at 97kg/213 lbs!

The USA Women's team took 3rd place as a team with 3 medalists. Helen Maroulis won gold at 55kg/121 lbs. Leigh Jaynes-Provisor won a bronze medal at 60kg/132 lbs. and Adaline Gray took home the gold medal at 75kg/165 lbs.

Congratulations to all the winners and the teams!

Associate Head Coach at Oregon State, Troy Steiner, was there coaching one of the teams. A sizeable group of Beaver fans were on hand to take in all the action.

Now for a bit of housekeeping. Many of you have not received the last couple of emails I sent out, due to Google changing the rules for Group Email without telling anyone what was going on. Instead of working as usual, it has randomly picked addresses, thereby dropping many people off.

For now at least, I will be posting all of my email messages to the website for "The FALL" so anyone/everyone can read them. For Website click here.

Hopefully I will be able to get this corrected before things get going for the season, so bear with me, please. I may have to change email addresses again if Google chooses to restrict email too much. If anyone does a lot of large group emails and has an emailer to recommend, please let me know! Meanwhile, if you haven't heard from me in a while, check the website for news. Thank you!

Go Beavs!
