At the start of any sports season, athletes usually find themselves needing to shake off the rust and brush off the cobwebs that gather during the off-season.

Hence the name of the CobWeb Open, the first Saskatchewan Weightlifting meet of the season, held in Moose Jaw this past Saturday.

Three local lifters competed in the event. Jamie Jamieson, listed in the 85 kg weight class, handled 95 kg in the snatch, and 73 kg in the clean and jerk. Rhaea Fowler, competing in the 75+ kg category at her second meet, lifted 60 kg in the snatch and 73 kg in the clean and jerk. Ryan Stinn, competing in his fourth meet in the 105+ kg class, lifted 96 kg in the snatch, and 121 kg in the clean and jerk.

“I think it was, overall, a good meet,” said Stinn. “It was a good first meet for the season.”
