On Tuesday, April 19, 2016, Kathryn Gough, Senator John Boozman’s field representative, travelled to Gentry to honor our Pioneer powerlifters. At 9:00 Tuesday morning, all the members of the powerlifting team were presented with certificates. Seeing as how this is the second year that the Pioneers have brought home national championships, Boozman’s office came to town to present them the awards.
Sophomore Tanner Christie said, “I think it was great that the senator recognized us and it was a great experience for the team.”
