Presidential Cup

By Denny Habecker

2018 Presidential Cup

This year’s Presidential Cup only had 4 lifters, but it was a successful meet none the less. We had Dean Ross, who came in from Oklahoma, Scott Schmidt from Cleveland, Ohio, Barry Pensyl from Easton, Pa. and myself. Barry and Dean’s lifts were judged by Scott and myself, Scott judged my lifts and I was the judge for his.  Scott won this year’s Presidential Cup with his 297 LBS   2 – 2″ Vertical Bar Deadlift.
