The Bearcats powerlifting team competed at the 2026 Texas High School Powerlifting Region 6 Division 3 and Region 6 Unequipped Regional Meet on March 12 & 13, with the unequipped team placing seventh out of 40 schools.
“We had eight guys go down Friday, and we brought home five medals, which is a big accomplishment from where we started,” Pilot Point head powerlifting coach Robby Perez said. “It’s all about peaking at the right time, and that’s what the kids did. Some of them tried things they thought they never would, but they did a great job competing.
In the unequipped division, there are no automatic qualifiers for the state meet, and a lifter must finish in the Top 2 in their respective weight classes.
