Gatesville High School's Emma Davidson and Kasey Fitzer both had a strong showing at the Texas Women's Powerlifting Association state meet, finishing among the top 10 powerlifters in the state in their classification.
"Both of these girls did an amazing job today," said GHS powerlifting coach Jason Moffett. "They lifted very well against some very good competition. They are both sophomores, so we are looking forward to having them back for two more years."
In the 114-pound weight class, Fitzer lifted a total weight of 615 pounds — 235 in the squat, 135 in the bench and 245 in the deadlift.
