Tola Morakinyo

With a late backfill invite, we have quite a formidable addition to the Pro men’s field in Tola Morakinyo. Competing through the qualifiers this season, he made the Pro Field in Indianapolis at the first Tour Stop and took 25th. He logged a workout win on Indy Pro 4A by putting 415 pounds over his head on the one rep max shoulder to overhead, and closed the weekend with a pair of 17th place finishes on Pro 5 and Pro 6. 

Although he didn’t make the Pro Field for the second Tour Stop, he showed up, threw down, and racked up points in the Challenger division, keeping a hope alive for the Finals…and that persistence has now been rewarded. See you in Denmark Tola!
