After the folkstyle state tournament, our girls continued their success on the International scene. In April, Ella Poalillo went out to the U17 Women’s World Team Trials and finished 5th at 69kg, earning All-American Status. Ella followed her performance up in Fargo, ND at the 16U Freestyle Nationals where she finished Runner-up to the 69kg World Team Member Kaili Manuel.
Leanna Mercado, 2x State Champion and Sandy Guerrero, NCAA Champion for NJCU earned spots on the Puerto Rican National Team. Sandy Guerrero will be traveling to Albania in October with Coach Omar for the U23 World Championships. We want to wish her the best of luck. If anyone wants to donate funds to help Sandy get to Albania, please feel free to inquire within.
