Steele Takes Gold at ICAD Grappling Competition in London

Gracie Barra Chatham competed in the ICAD’s grappling competition hosted by Gracie Barra London on July 17th. Local grappler Justin Steele dominated his division taking home gold.

Steele rocked the adult 175 lbs division although he’s only 15 years old. The Chatham grappler who trains at Armstrong Submission, captured gold going 7-0, with all of his wins but one coming by submission. His other victory was won by points.

The remainder of the divisions were stacked with talent. Matthew Todd (under 200 lbs division) and Aaron Lafleur (155 lbs division) fought hard throughout the competition, as did Shelby Lepage (teen division), who was unable to continue due to injury.
