The Donna North boys powerlifting team posted a first-place finish at the Texas High School Powerlifting Association (THSPA) Region V Division I Meet on Saturday at Edinburg High School to secure the Chiefs’ first regional team championship in program history.

Donna North took home gold with 29 team points from two first-place and three second-place finishes Saturday. McAllen Memorial earned second with 21 points and Victoria East finished third with 19 points.

Points are awarded for the top five finishes in each weight class in this manner — 7, 5, 3, 2 and 1. Each lifter goes through three different sets of lifts — squat, bench press and deadlift. The total weight combined from the three lifts determines the winner.

Lifters who finished in first or second place in each weight class at the regional meet or posted a qualifying total in their respective weight class on Saturday qualified for the THSPA 2024 State Championships March 22-23 at the Taylor County Expo Center in Abilene.

Donna North’s Deondre Moody and Isaiah Loya led the Chiefs to the regional team title by finishing first in their respective weight classes Saturday.

The defending 123-pound state champion Moody broke a pair of regional records with a 365-pound bench press and 1,315 total to earn first at 123 pounds. He also squatted 500 pounds, deadlifted 450, and is in position to repeat as the 123-pound state champ.

Loya set a new regional record in the 308-pound weight class with a 790-pound squat. He finished with a 485-pound bench and 555-pound deadlift for a 1,830 total.

Three more Chiefs contributed points as Jeremy Salazar earned second-place in the 132-pound weight class with a 1,315 total, Angel Sanchez finished second in the 181-pound weight class with a 1,545 total, and Omar Guererro placed second in the 242-pound weight class with a 1,715 total.

McAllen High’s Demitri Ayala went 4-for-4 in breaking regional records in the 198-pound weight class with a 710-pound squat, 505-pound bench press and 705-pound deadlift for a total of 1,920 pounds. Ayala enters the state meet as Texas’ No. 1-ranked powerlifter at 198 pounds.

Edinburg IDEA College Prep took home third place at the THSPA Region V Division III Meet in Kingsville on Saturday with 19 team points, while La Villa finished third with 25 team points at the THSPA Region V Division IV Meet in Kingsville on Saturday.

Below is a list of Rio Grande Valley boys powerlifters who qualified for the THSPA 2024 State Championships on March 22-23 at the Taylor County Expo Center in Abilene.

The Donna North boys powerlifting team posted a first-place finish at the Texas High School Powerlifting Association (THSPA) Region V Division I Meet on Saturday at Edinburg High School to secure the Chiefs’ first regional team championship in program history.

Donna North took home gold with 29 team points from two first-place and three second-place finishes Saturday. McAllen Memorial earned second with 21 points and Victoria East finished third with 19 points.

Points are awarded for the top five finishes in each weight class in this manner — 7, 5, 3, 2 and 1. Each lifter goes through three different sets of lifts — squat, bench press and deadlift. The total weight combined from the three lifts determines the winner.

Lifters who finished in first or second place in each weight class at the regional meet or posted a qualifying total in their respective weight class on Saturday qualified for the THSPA 2024 State Championships March 22-23 at the Taylor County Expo Center in Abilene.

Donna North’s Deondre Moody and Isaiah Loya led the Chiefs to the regional team title by finishing first in their respective weight classes Saturday.

The defending 123-pound state champion Moody broke a pair of regional records with a 365-pound bench press and 1,315 total to earn first at 123 pounds. He also squatted 500 pounds, deadlifted 450, and is in position to repeat as the 123-pound state champ.

Loya set a new regional record in the 308-pound weight class with a 790-pound squat. He finished with a 485-pound bench and 555-pound deadlift for a 1,830 total.

Three more Chiefs contributed points as Jeremy Salazar earned second-place in the 132-pound weight class with a 1,315 total, Angel Sanchez finished second in the 181-pound weight class with a 1,545 total, and Omar Guererro placed second in the 242-pound weight class with a 1,715 total.

McAllen High’s Demitri Ayala went 4-for-4 in breaking regional records in the 198-pound weight class with a 710-pound squat, 505-pound bench press and 705-pound deadlift for a total of 1,920 pounds. Ayala enters the state meet as Texas’ No. 1-ranked powerlifter at 198 pounds.

Edinburg IDEA College Prep took home third place at the THSPA Region V Division III Meet in Kingsville on Saturday with 19 team points, while La Villa finished third with 25 team points at the THSPA Region V Division IV Meet in Kingsville on Saturday.
