Bandera senior Ashton Robinson qualified for the UIL State Powerlifting Meet after posting a 1,350-pound total at the Regional Meet in Abilene earlier this month. Competing in the 165-pound division, he recorded a 530-pound squat, 320-pound bench press, and 500-pound deadlift. Robinson will represent Bandera at the state meet on March 20-21 at Wylie High School. In a show of support, students at Alkek Elementary lined the hallways with high fives and cheers to send Robinson off in style. COURTESY PHOTO
