Tyler Proffitt Wins NAGA Championship Title: Thanks Author Sponsors

Tyler Proffitt wins NAGA

I want to start off by thanking the people who made my trip to NAGA (North American Grappling Association) possible. Without their sponsorship I would not have been able to accomplish my dream of winning a championship NAGA belt.

Together we won the gold. I hope I made you proud.

It was a long day on Saturday. My parents and I left home at 3 a.m., headed for Nashville. It was a six-hour drive but we finally made it.

When I stepped on the mat I was determined to bring home the belt, and I did, winning first place and my first NAGA title belt in the No Gi match.

I then went on to take the gold medal (first place) in the Gi match.

Now it’s back to training hard. This Saturday I am competing in the Indiana State Judo Tournament.

Again, thank you all so much for your support. It means a lot to me.

Here’s a video of the final moments of the No Gi match.
