GAPLF Intermediates/Masters C/ships

By Zaheer Mohamed

Wazeer Hussein and Sarah Sanmoogan were crowned overall male and female champions respectively in the open division, while Marley Vyphuis, Nigil Phillips and Lalita Bridgemohan were dominant in the masters’ segment when the Guyana Amateur Powerlifting federation staged its Intermediates/Masters championships Sunday at St. Stanislaus Auditorium.

Cognizant that a lift is either won or lost in their minds long before they chalked their hands and curled their fingers around a barbell, the athletes responded well to the cheers from the crowd, the type of motivation that is needed in iron sport, as they shattered 22 records on a fierce day.
As competitors displayed the fruits of their labour, hence deciding their own fate, Hussein of Roy’s gym Essequibo Coast broke two records and Sanmoogan shattered four in the open category, while Leroy Trotman earned qualification for the upcoming North American championship which is slated for Panama in August.
Arnold Archer, Richard Fredericks and Nigil Phillips smashed four records each while Keisha Abrigo, another Panama bound competitor shattered three and Marley Vyphius one.
The best lifter in the female Masters classic was Lalita Bridgemohan of Seemangal gym of Essequibo Coast, Nigil Phillips was crowned the best lifter in the male Masters equipped and the most outstanding competitor in the male Masters classic was Marley Vyphuis.
Sarah Goptar, Lydia Roberts, Ashlie Abraham, Alicia Garrett were outstanding in the female division. Toni Ferreira, Randy Oodit, Kadeem Bowen, Kheon Evans, Ramesh Seecharan, Puneshwar Ramjit and Joseph Stoll also turned in sterling performances.
Following is the full results of the day’s proceedings:
