Target Training at Tonights Training Session

T'Money loves target training. He does really well at it. Some of the pictures are a little blurry.

Hair Done - Check

Took T’Money to get hair colored and cut for the upcoming tourneys. We didn’t actually have her gel and style it today because T’Money has a training session tonight but here are some pictures.

Today we have lost an awesome man of God!!! While I’m happy for him because he is with the Father in Heaven I’m sadden because I remember watching his crusades as a child. They made such an impact on me as a young person. This nation has lost such an amazing man! He will be dearly missed. RIP Rev. Billy Graham!!!

He has heard the words Well Done from Jesus and there’s a celebration going on in Heaven right now. Such a great evangelist! While he may be gone from this world he will never be forgotten! Check out the link below:

Rev. Billy Graham dead at 99

JINHO Training Videos

Taken from today’s training session. When you watch these videos. T’Money is the one in the red headgear and chest gear and he’s wearing black shorts and top. Enjoy!

Training at JINHO Today

T’Money had a good day of training at JINHO today even though he’s overcoming a cold. He’s pushing through and keeping on training because State is just a few weeks away and he wants to get all the training in that he can. We took some videos that we’ll post later for everyone to see but enjoy these pictures for now.

Tim's 2025 Accomplishments!

Tim had a huge year in 2025, moving through three weight classes. He began in the 61 kg division and finished in the 71 kg division, with the June weight category update shifting the weight classes. Despite all the transitions, Tim made tremendous progress. He earned 4 Gold Medals, 4 Silver Medals (6 Silver finishes) & 3 Bronze Medals (4 Bronze finishes) - which were his 1st USA National Level Medals. To top all that off he is the record holder for the snatch & total in the Youth 71kg division for WSO Carolinas. A standout year filled with growth, experience, and momentum for Tim.

Heaven Gained a Hero Aug. 16, 1935 to May 16, 2024 - 88 years old

It's hard to forget someone who gave us so much to remember. Pop (Franklin Eugene Neal) was born in Ashland, KY. He graduated Thomas R. Brown High School and was a proud Army National Guard Veteran. He loved cars and working on them. He loved racing them with his boys, Jeff and Scot. He could fix just about anything. If he didn't have a tool for something then he'd make it. He valued family above everything. He loved traveling and going to amusement parks with his kids and grandkids, especially Disney World. He will forever be missed and forever be in our hearts! (this is not his official Obit)
