PIONEERS Win State Championship!

The Croswell-Lexington powerlifting girls team won its first state championship.

The Pioneers finished with 97 team points to beat out five-time defending champions Whitmore Lake Friday night at the Michigan High School Power Lifting Association 2012 State Finals at Lake Orion High School.

Whitmore Lake took second with 64 points. There were 25 teams competing in the event.

"We were able to qualify 28 girls for states on our team this year out of 34," Cros-Lex coach Sheila Klaas said. "The girls worked very hard this year and were determined to walk away winners.

"They lifted their hearts out last night and as a coach I could not have asked for anymore. It was a great night."

Cros-Lex also had two state champions: Casey Tait in the 123-weight class with a 600-pound total and Jessica Genaw in the 181-weight class with a total of 610 pounds.
