Sarah Bertram and Jessica Gee got 1st in the 69’s and 4th in the 63’s, respectively, at Nationals this year. Both of them are from here in Oregon.
Both are also coached by Tom Hirtz, a legend in his own right. My club competes against their club all the time, and it’s fantastic to see the two of them doing so well. They both work extremely hard, and are genuinely cool people. Congratulations!
Here’s a news story about them from KEZI news Eugene, OR. It includes shot of them practicing, and interviews.

Always good to see Heavy Athletics people doing well. They’re all good people and have been helpful to our younger club. Let’s hope Sarah gets that shot at the next Olympics.
