The former Florida Southern College softball player who weighed in at all of 114 pounds stepped up to win the Best Dead Lifter of the Meet Award. This award has only been placed into the hands of men. She won by lifting 330 pounds, three-times her bodyweight. It was a WABDL state record (and 10 pounds more than her previous state record).
