With the IAWA competitive season over and only two USAWA championships remaining between now and the 2026 National Championships, I have been pondering the contenders for athlete of the year.
2025 Nationals – 1st, 2nd, 3rd were Larry Traub, Chad Ullom, Michael Hanlein; Beth Skwarecki, Jessica Hopps and Nisha Gupta
2025 IAWA Worlds – Denny Habecker and me were the top USAWA athletes
2025 IAWA Gold Cup – Chad Ullom, Denny Habecker, Al Myers and LaVerne Myers were the top USAWA athletes
Heavy Lift Championship – 1st, 2nd, 3rd were Chad Ullom, Abe Smith, Nils Larson; Jessica Hopps, Mary McConnaughey
Presidential Cup – Beth Skwarecki won
Team Championship – Tony & Dave were the top M/M; Kim & Diya were the top F/F and Allison & Tony were the top M/F
OTSM Championship – 1st, 2nd, 3rd were Chad Ullom, Dave DeForest, Dave Glasgow
Postal Championship – 1st, 2nd, 3rd were Abe Smith, Barry Bryan, Dan Jones; Stacy Todd, Lisa Gore, Lilly Todd
Club Championship will be in February and Grip Championship will be in April.
Of course, there are plenty of other factors that could be considered and that is the beauty of the USAWA annual awards, they are voted on by the membership.
