Two local powerlifters took part in the Ottawa Summer Showcase on the weekend.

Yasmin Gergi won bronze in the 84+ kilo category.

She has only been training in powerlifting for nine months and has already qualified for provincials in November.

Meantime, Kim Crumpton broke provincial records in bench press and deadlift in the 63 kilo class.

Next up, she will represent Canada in the Bench Only and Three Lift Competitions in St John’s, Newfoundland in September.
