Dave Kaplan wins Singing Bee MMA (Mixed Music Art)

Former Team Lloyd Irvin Coach Dave Kaplan was on NBC's "The Singing Bee"
this week and worked his way up to the final round winning the $50,000 grand

prize. The show which is seen by millions of people, is a game show where a
contestant has to fill in the blanks on song lyrics to test their knowledge
of hit songs. The Singing Bee theme for that day was "Girl Power" so Dave
had to lock into his memory banks on such artist as - Madonna, Pat Benatar,
Julia Andrews, just to name a few. Here is a clip of the event on NBC's
Singing Bee website staring Dave Kaplan doing his thing:

Competition Results

Memorial Day Weekend, Team Lloyd Irvin--Arlington had competitors compete in two prestigious grappling tournaments. On Saturday, May 26th, we had Maria Valenzuela compete in one of the top rated North American Judo tournaments, the Am-Cams which draws 700-800 of the top Judo Players from all over North America. Maria had three hard fought matches, losing in the finals and taking 2nd place in the women 73kg Black Belt division! Losing only to the #2 ranked woman's Judoka on points. This is a big step for Maria as she plans on competing in a lower weight class in the next big Judo tournament. That same day, we had five members of our competition team travel to Pittsburgh, Pa to compete in the Kumite Classic ( www.kumiteclassic.com). This competition is an Rated event under the World Grappling League. In the Gi divisions, Travis Harrington took 3rd place (White Belt), Derek Seirra 2nd place (Blue Belt), Tim Koren 1st Place (Blue Belt) & Sean Gutridge 1st Place! In the No-Gi Advance divisions, Derek 2nd Place, & Sean took 1st place! Watch for all of these competitors on June 23rd at the Diamond State Games in Delaware.
