In a meet that was small in numbers, had some excellent competition.  In the full meet, Michael Scott
set 4 state records in the Tested 148s.  In the 165s, Kevin Tyler also set 4 state records in the Raw Tested
division, along with his nice 1130 total.  The Junior 220s had some great competition with only 10 lbs
separating first and second place.  Phillip Hardey came out on top over Ben Ruth.  Phillip set a state
record in the squat, while Ben topped him on the deadlift.  In the Raw Tested 275s, Darren Horton had a
very nice day.  Darren set 4 state records and had an awesome raw total of 1370.  Kurt Soileau, lifting in
the Tested 242s also set 4 state records along with being the 2007 APA Louisiana Record Breaker's Best
Lifter.  Kurt hit a 685 squat, a 435 bench, and an awesome pull on his fourth attempt of 685; he totaled
an impressive 1775 for the day.  In the bench only, it was a battle of the 220s.  Jim Phelps, lifting in the
Open and Tested 220s hit 475 on his first attempt and just missed a state record of 501 on his second and
third.  Coming over from Alexandria, LA, big Joel Allen just missed an impressive 585 bench on his second
and third attempts.  Joel did place first in the deadlift only division with a nice 600 lb pull.  Special thanks
