What happened at NAGA Chicago

How many tpjj dudes did well

I competed in the 159.9 Novice class and killed it. It was my first competition and i was nervous as hell but i easily won every match. I train with my buddies in an apartment out of Princeton Illinois but we are die hard 10th planet guys (even though we rarely go to an actually gym since the nearest ones are 2 hours away) We learned our shit from this site and Eddie's books :) So i took gold in the 159 novice, and the other guy of ours that went got 2nd in the 159 intermediate division.

I only have a video of my final match but I'll post a link for it on here.

Hell, while I'm at it, here's a break down of my matches haha. First match, i pulled half guard, old school sweep to side, took mount and did a mounted triangle for the finish. Second match, i pulled guard, and pulled an armbar. it was like a 15 second match lol. Third match, i pulled guard, swept to mount and i tried to work my mount game but he was annoying and was curled up in the t-rex the entire time. at the last second i finally got a deep hook and went for the armbar but time was up. And my fourth match...well you can just watch the clinic i put on via my youtube link :)

I took 1st place in the 139.9 Expert Div. going 3-0. Video will be up this week!
Two of my students placed 2nd in their Divisions as well. Great representation by all 10thPJJ Fighters!

Nice work guys

Oh and a buddy of mine also got 2nd in the 159 inter division. I believe it was in his second match where he got the guy with a gogoplata from chill dog. Ultimately, he got 2nd to some behemoth wrestler :/

SICK SICK SICK! awesome. Yeah I have been training for only a couple months now. But this gives me some confidence for my first competition in October.
