Mass State Championships - Adult Program Results

Congratulations to everyone who competed at MA States! It was the largest Massachusetts States for well over a decade and we were fortunate to have a well-run tournament (thanks to our team) and electronic scoring for both poomsae and sparring. For sparring, everyone from our school got to compete against someone new, which was awesome.

Below are the results for CW Adult Program members and members of the team who train with our competition workouts. If students also train with other programs, they are noted in parentheses.

Thank you to our amazing all-day volunteers, many of whom competed after working all day long: Tara Sarathi, Carissa Fu, and Richard-Duane Chambers scheduled hundreds of matches and divisions at the head table, Andrew Mandelbaum managed the whole tournament for sparring tech even when things started to go down. Kevin Lu, Oana Niculaescu, Renee Zhao, Isaac Fenta, Hilary Monaco, Manon Jean and Kristien Creamer helped to organize rings on the front lines as judges and ring managers. You guys were heroes and dealt with difficult situations all day long.

Thanks also to everyone who helped me coach: Master Mike Harb, Chris Lo, Dave Chan, Tara Sarathi, Carissa Fu. We had so many people out on the floor towards the end of the day and needed everyone's support!
