WPA - WPA World Record

CT - CT Record

MA - MA Record

NY - NY Record

Well, the 2003 APA Nutmeg State BP & DL might require a name change to the Snow Bound Classic.  We got hit with high winds and a major snowstorm that dropped snow at 2” an hour causing white-out conditions.  Considering we usually pull lifters from 8 states plus Canada, the storm put a big dent in our numbers but it certainly didn’t put a damper on the enthusiasm.  I couldn’t believe we had as many lifters and spectators as we did considering just how bad the weather was.  Many thanks to all 56 lifters who did make the treacherous trip.

It takes a lot of good help to run a meet and I’m very fortunate to have the best there is.  Many thanks to my husband Mark, Abby & Michelle MacKenzie, Mikel Brockway, Kurt Bergeron, Cory Wasniewski, Dawn & Lon Baker, Lynn Cannamela, Dennis Montembault, Mike Taylor and Ronnie.

Special thanks also to Inzer Advance Designs, House of Pain, APT's Pro Wrist Straps, and PL USA for their support. 

On to the lifting, Krysann Radtke got us off to a great start with a CT Junior State Record of 130 lbs. and came very close with 135.  This was 30 lbs. better than the last time I saw Krysann compete and I’m sure more records are on the way for her.  Krysann won our Women’s Lightweight division for her efforts.  Carla McComb won our Women’s Middleweight division and took home the Best Lifter trophy with an easy 150 lbs. and came extremely close to a World Record tying 165.  Look for Carla to make that record her own very soon. 

15 yr. old Don Anneser lifted in his first APA meet and made quite the impression while winning his division.  He broke the World Record on all 3 of his attempts, ending with a very impressive 315 @ 164 lbs.  Terrific lifting for someone so young.  16 yr. old Dolan Simmons Jr. had a tough day only making one attempt but still took 1st place in his division with a nice 225.  The Teen 18-19 division was a tough battle.  Chuck Hitchcock, Chris Mehmel and Ricky Kielczweski Jr. all set state records with Chuck coming out the winner with a MA State Record 400.  Mike Zawilinski had a great day in the Junior division.  He ended with a World Record 475 lbs. to take the win.  Nick Galiatsatos set a new CT State Record with 360 lbs. while winning 2nd place. 

The Submaster division blew us all away.  2nd place finisher Brett Moorehead made the trip down from Maine to give us one last chance to see him lift, he’s moving to Florida in a few weeks.  He went out in style with a 4 for 4 day and a World Record 450 @ 173 lbs.  He also took home the Best Lifter Lightweight trophy.  All of his lifts looked incredibly easy and he had at least another 30 lbs. in him.  Thanks for all the support through the years Brett and you are going to be sorely missed.  What can I say about the 1st place winner but amazing.  Vincent Dizenzo came to the meet with one goal in mind.  Vincent wanted to become only the 2nd person in history to bench press 700 lbs. in 3 different weight classes.  With a 700 in the SHW class and 730 in the 308’s, it was time to see what he could do in the 275’s.  Vinny opened with 650 and in typical fashion, launched it like it was 135.  Now it was time for a little history-making.  700 was called for and the place was the loudest I think I’ve ever heard it.  I swear the walls were shaking.  Vincent came down nice and controlled with it, got the press command and  pressed it out for a nice solid lift.  The place went nuts.  Just when we thought we’d seen it all, Vincent called for one more attempt, 767.5.  You see, he got his name in the history books by benching 700 lbs. in 3 weight classes, setting the WPA World Submaster Record in the process, but there was one more thing he was after.  He wanted the all-time best bench ever made in the 275 lb. class, regardless of federation.  The crowd was stunned at what they were about to see.  Vinny got the lift-off and brought the bar down with incredible control.  He got the press command and blasted the bar up off his chest with amazing speed.  Near lockout the bar began to slow but Vinny just kept on pushing for all he had.  The bar floated for a second and then he was locked solid for a good lift.  The crowd went absolutely wild.  767.5 @ 273 lbs., what more can you say? 

The record setting continued right on with the Master 40-44 division.  Alan Perkins took the win with a CT State Record 407.5 on a perfect 4 for 4 day and looked good for more.  Ricky Kielczweski Jr. had set a MA State record in his teen division and the pressure was now on Ricky Kielczweski Sr. to complete his part of the deal.  Dad didn’t let anyone down.  Ricky Sr. had a great day ending with a MA State record 470 to win the 45-49 division.  Oscar Mack Jr. took 3rd place in this same division, setting a NY record for his efforts.  Roland Cote took home another Best Lifter trophy while winning the 50-59 division with a silky smooth 420.  Not bad for a 58 yr. old, huh?  The 60-69 division was quite the battle.  John McGuire came out on top with a CT State record 345 while Jerry Beals set his own CT State record with 272.5.

Vincente Pichay made his return to the platform with a new WPA World record in the Open 123 lb. class.  Vincente is 51 yrs. old but you’d never know it as he slammed up an easy 230 to take the win.  The 148 lb. class was won by Jason Strucinski.  Jason had a great day, ending with an easy 370 for a CT State record.  Brett Moorehead may have taken 2nd to Vincent Dizenzo in the Submaster division by formula but in the 181 Open, he was in a league all his own.  Brett took the win with an incredibly easy 450.  The 198 lb. class was won by Mikel Brockway.  Mike hit a personal best 360 and came ever so close to a double bodyweight 387.5.  Next time for sure Mike.  The Open 220 lb. class was won by Chuck Hitchcock with a MA State record 400.  Randy Bailey took the 242 lb. class with a 400 lb. bench of his own.  Vincent Dizenzo won the Open 275 lb. class along with his Submaster win, with his incredible 767.5 to take the #1 spot on the all-time list.  Jason Woelfel won the 308 lb. class with an easy 300 lbs. and Michael Zawilinski took home 1st in the SHW division to go with his win in the Junior Division. 

Carla McComb showed she can pull as well as bench, taking home the Best Lifter trophy with a deadlift of 250 and coming very, very close with a MA State record 280.  15 yr. old Don Anneser wasn’t satisfied just winning the bench, so he won the deadlift too with an easy 345.  Dolan Simmons Jr. showed he’s been working hard at the gym.  He pulled a very nice 400 for a CT State record and the win in the Teen 16-17 division.  The Teen 18-19 division was another good battle.  19 yr. old Cory Wasniewski is turning 20 soon and this was his last chance at the teen records.  He made the most of it by pulling a very impressive World record 640 and just missing 655 a few inches from lockout.  2nd place finisher Nic Moretto more than held his own with a big MA State record 600 pull of his own.  The Junior division was won by Anthony Pagano with a nicely fought CT State record 602.5.  Joe Humphries pulled his own CT State record of 545 while winning 3rd place. 

The Submaster division was won by Dolan Simmons Sr., part of another father/son record setting team.  Dolan Sr. set a CT State record 537.5 to go with his son’s State record in the teen division.  Eric Disessa won 2nd place with a MA State record 340 @ 143.  The Master 45-49 division was won by Oscar Mack Jr. from Bronx, NY.  Oscar pulled a NY State record 455 and gave 500 a good ride.  It’ll be yours soon Oscar.  The Master 50-59 division was another nice battle between two tough lifters.  Gerry Barsky came out on top this time with a NY State record 580 @ 241.  Roland Cote followed in a close 2nd with a CT State record 550 @ 218.  John Varrone was very impressive in the Master 60-69 division.  John pulled 550 @ 181 to win the division, set a new WPA World record, win Best Master Lifter and then, something incredibly hard to do when you are 60 yrs. old, he also won Best Lightweight Lifter against the young guns.  Amazing lifting John! 

The Open 181 lb. class was won by the Master 45-49 division winner, Oscar Mack Jr.  Junior division winner Anthony Pagano took home the win in the Open 198 lb. class as well.  The Open 220 lb. class was won by MA’s Nic Moretto with an easy 585.  Teen winner Cory Wasniewski took home the win in the Open 242 lb. class as well with his big 640 pull.  Gabe Bonneville won the 275 lb. class with a nice 625 and had 655 right at lockout before losing his grip.  The Open 308 lb. class and Best Heavyweight Lifter was won by Billy Mimnaugh.  Billy set a CT State record with his opener of 725 and then jumped to a WPA World record 780.  Billy has been plagued by injuries and the 780 didn’t go on this day but if he can get healthy, watch out.  The Team division was won by Nic Moretto’s team. 

While CT’s Southside Gym members Vincent Dizenzo and Billy Mimnaugh competed in the meet, members Bob Bove and APF Seniors Champ Ronnie Dayton lifted as Guest Lifters.  Bob pulled an impressive 690 in the 242 lb. class and Ronnie pulled an amazing 785 at around 256 lbs.  How’s that for some quality lifting?

8 WPA World records, 13 CT State records, 7 MA State records and 4 NY State records were set.  Oh yeah, we also set the all-time December snowfall record for CT.  It was a big day all around!
