Jeremiah Barreda, competing in the 8-12 years advanced, placed first in sparring and second in form.
Deven Bonge, competing in 8-12 years beginner scored first in sparring.
Brendan Maninger, 14 years old with a red belt, took first in the 14-17 advanced level. Maninger also competed in the men's black belt division, scoring third overall and winning two of his three matches against a third degree and sixth degree black belt, respectively.
Asia Firebaugh competed in the 13-17 female brown belt division taking first in sparring.
Tina Hixson competed in 35 and older beginner division, taking home first place in form.
Competitor Sam Cunningham, 15, a brown belt and the team's highest ranking athlete with a developmental disability, was unable to compete due to illness.
While competitors with developmental disability are generally limited to participating in self-defense and forms, Cunningham is training to be one of the first West Coast athletes to spar with a fellow special needs competitor from a competing club rather than doing a demonstration with a team member.
Cummins Martial Arts Methods Karate Club is headed by Master Larry Cummins, eighth degree black belt assisted by his son, Robby Cummins, second degree black belt, and Brian Maninger, first degree black belt.
Cummins Karate Club has operated for 25 years in Clearlake, and 20 years in the Bay Area. The Club accepts students of all ages and abilities.
