Jake WON GOLD!


Philadelphia, PA - Jason Morris Judo Center (JMJC) athletes Brad Bolen (22), Hannah Martin (22) & Jake Stromecki (21) all captured titles in their respective divisions at the Liberty Bell Classic in Philadelphia, PA over the weekend. Overall the JMJC claimed a total of 9 medals. Bolen added this win at 66kg to his gold last week at the Ocean State International which should be a good confidence boost for the Pan Am Championships next weekend in Guadalajara, Mexico. Bolen picked up the $350 first prize money. Bolen will join teammates Nick Kossor (60kg) and Kyle Vashkulat (100kg) on the US team that will be competing in the Pan Ams. Martin moved up to 63kg from her normal 57kg weight class and won the gold. Stromecki (100kg) won his first Liberty Bell going 3-0 on the day. Cammi Kaichi (23) won a silver at 57kg as did Natalie Lafon (30) who was in 52kg. Brice Rudat (21) earned a silver medal in the 90kg novice category while Pete Stanley (27) won a silver in the 100kg novice division. Ethan Stanley (24) closed out the JMJC medal count by winning a silver in +100kg novice and a bronze in the +100kg elite division
