Huge congrats to the RONIN ATHLETICS’s very own head coach, Christian Montes, on his recent trip and competition wins at NAGA Midwest 2008!

Flying into Chicago on a delayed flight from NYC the morning of the competition, Christian quickly jumped into his rental car and drove straight to the event where he signed up, weighed-in, and jumped onto the mats to bring home a 3rd place medal in the Master’s Expert No-gi Middleweight division.

Since this was a “solo mission” for Christian, and he was running behind schedule, he was not able to have someone video record his matches, fortunately for us, one of his opponent’s did put up his second match of the same division (Men’s Master’s Expert Welterweight) with Christian up on youtube. Enjoy!

Stay tuned for more information and pics from the event!

Congrats Coach!!!
