“Arnold Amateur strongman winner Mike Jenkins is looking very impressive in his first professional strongman event. He and Marshall have been battling with 1st and 2nd place all evening," said Wessels.
Here are the official scores for the top five places after the first day of competition:
1. | Marshall White | 48.0 |
2. | Mike Jenkins | 44.5 |
3. | Travis Ortmayer | 40.0 |
4. | Allan Kliese | 39.5 |
5. | Andrew Palmer | 38.0 |
“[Saturday] we start at 1 p.m. with 330-lb. Axle clean and press for reps, Chevy car deadlift, IronMind® sandbag medley, and the Atlas stones.
“The city of Hot Springs has done a wonderful job bringing in fans and filling the Summit Arena. The event is free to the public,” Wessels said.
In addition to the glory of winning the pro USA strongman nationals, Wessels told IronMind®, "the top 11 qualify for America's Strongest Man® at the Olympia."
