Congratulations to Taylor Ibera (44kg), Anthony Kwon (66kg) and Dane Pestano (+100kg). Ibera and Pestano both won their divisions at the 2010 National Junior Olympic Championships yesterday in Duluth, GA, and Kwon was runner up. They all qualify for a spot on the U.S. team and will compete at 2010 Junior World Championships in October in Morocco.
Cassidy and Cole Chandler also from Hawaii Tenri won their divisions at the 2010 National Olympic Cahampionships in Duluth,GA.
Thanks for the update. If anyone has more info (or pictures!) please send along and I’ll post. Quite an accomplishment by Hawaii judokas and they deserve the exposure.
