September 10, 2011 I competed in the 1st Annual Rio Grande Valley Jiu-Jitsu Open. I competed as a yellow belt in the heavy weight class (127 lbs – 139 lbs). My weigh-in weight was 134 lbs. I won the gold medal in the gi division and silver medal in the no gi division. Harlingen Jiu-Jitsu Club won the 1st place team trophy so a lot of my teammates also won medals. I’ll be working on this page over the next week and try to get a complete list of who at HJJC won what. There was some really good matches and I had a lot of fun at the tournament.
