- Over the weekend Reps Ahead hosted its fifth pro competition, named as such…”Pro 5″. But rather than single head-to-head match-ups, Reps Ahead Pro 5 featured a four-athlete single-elimination style tournament. Four men and four women took the floor Saturday in the Semifinals before the winners met in the championship match Sunday night.
After a couple last minute line-up changes, Saturdays match-ups were the following:
Tudor Magda vs Cole Greashaber
James Sprague vs Malachi Bennett
Trista Smith vs Zoe Warren
Arielle Loewen vs Rachel Noel
Cole Greashaber and James Sprague would wind up victorious on Saturday on the men’s side along with Trista Smith and Arielle Loewen for the women.
