The Lady Tiger lifted a personal best squat of 520 pounds, did a 285-pound bench press, a personal best 450-pound deadlift and hit a new state totals record of 1,255 pounds.

Her efforts put Trinity at seventh in the team standings, which was won by Edinburg Idea College Prep.

Kylie Voelker and Chloe Meshell bombed out on squats, which ended their competition for the season.
