Lift Powerlifting to South Africa

Louisiana Tech University Powerlifting Team won its 35th National Championship! The Irondawgs placed 1st in the Men's Open division at the 2017 USA Powerlifting Collegiate National Championships. This brings the championship back to Louisiana Tech and is a huge victory for the university and the entire state of Louisiana.

Next, our team of 10 lifters and 2 coaches need your support to compete at the 2nd Annual University World Cup in Potchefstroom, South Africa on July 6-17. Our funding goal of $15,000 will be used for hotel fees, airfare, transportation to and from the airport, uniforms, participation fees (entry, drug testing, and closing ceremony), luggage fees, travel insurance, and meals for this historic opportunity for Louisiana Tech Powerlifting. This will be the first time an invitation to compete at the world level has been offered for an entire Louisiana Tech Powerlifting team. Many individuals have competed at the world level throughout the history of the team, but never a complete team. Louisiana Tech University has an opportunity to gain global recognition for a sporting event with a solid team of lifters.
