This past weekend Gabrielle and Vicky both competed at the Trident Classic 2017 Weightlifting Meet at Trident Athletics down in Tacoma. It was their first competition, in the Open and Novice division respectively.

@gabriellenfuller went 5/6 at her first-ever Olympic weightlifting meet! She hit 54kg (119lbs) in her snatch, then made a lifetime PR at 72kg (158lbs) in her clean! She totaled 126kg which qualifies her for the American Open Series this year. Big thanks to @tridentathletics for hosting another great event. #foundationbarbell #HYFRsquad #hellabuffbaes #noghostridingthebar #timeforbeer
