Great Tournament! Lot's of quality competitors and great matches!
Dan had one of his best tournament performances. He worked hard and got his weight down to compete at 165lbs!
His first match was a war and Dan ended up tapping his opponent with a triangle for the win!



Dan was ready!









Dan and Bubba in the warm-up area







Dan made a comeback in his second match to beat his opponent 9-5!





But in Dan's next match, he lost by submission to the eventual runner-up. He lost his fourth match on points and ended the day with 2 wins and 2 losses and gained invaluable experience! Great Job Dan!
