Longwood hosted its first-ever Special Olympics powerlifting competition on Feb. 11, organized by the sports performance division of the university’s athletics department.
“It’s a really good feeling to be able to put something on for a group that may not be able to get as many opportunities, so the big the for me was to do the best event that I could for them,” said Assistant Sports Performance Coach C.J. Roth, the event’s main coordinator.
