    Fantastic. I remember freshman orientation looking at the trophy case for powerlifting and being blown away. Didn't know anything about the sport but that kind of dominance in any sport, varsity or otherwise, stands out.

    Yep. Powerlifting is BY FAR the most successful program at Louisiana Tech. There have been other years that Tech has come in 2nd or 3rd place nationally. No other Tech sport comes close to the Iron Dawgs' success.

    I get that this is not a varsity sport but did I miss any official tweets about this? Cmon guys.

    I mean I wouldn't really expect Tech Athletics to post about a sport that's outside their jurisdiction. The university itself, on the other hand...

    Makes sense. Nothing on that front either (though a retweet of Tech's Sweet Sixteen hockey game).

    I can remember years ago back in the mid 90's there was a section in the Sunday News Star called USA Weekend (I think). At one point Arnold Schwarzenegger had this write in column where he would answer a question or two about fitness or weightlifting or whatever, I don't know. Anyway, long story short in one of his answers he suggested that the person he was responding to should check out Louisiana Tech University because they had the best program in the country. He also mentioned some other school but it's been over 20 years and I've forgotten that one.

    Posted Thursday by Dr. Les Guice: Congratulations to our National Champion Powerlifting team. Go Bulldogs! I hope that all of our fans and friends will help this team go compete for the world championships soon. This will be our first ever team participation in world championships.

    It's pretty cool they honored Tech powerlifting founder Dr. Billy Jack Talton at the ceremonies Thursday.

    I'm still in awe of the Miller Lite cans in the background. I miss my Tech days.
