Winters recently started working with Danny Camargo and it's showing, with a solid total and a 5/6 performance earning her gold overall.

Ritchey had gold in her sights coming into the AO and while she ended up with silver overall, she took home a gold medal in the clean & jerk. Not bad for just training weightlifting exclusively for a few months.

Mattie Sasser Takes Gold In W58

Sasser competed for the Marshall Islands in the Rio Olympics, taking 11th overall and has recently joined Travis Mash at Mash Mafia to lift for the United States. Taking gold in her first US National level competition is a good omen I think.

Jess Lucero Takes Silver In W58

While Lucero wasn't in prime shape leading into the American Open, she's got a good perspective on where she's headed and how she's gonna get there. With another long quad ahead of her, Lucero is playing the long game.
