44 - The Oakville Beaver, Friday June 1, 2007 www.oakvillebeaver.com Jiu-jitsu competitors earn medals at nationals Two Buckley Jiu-Jitsu competitors won medals at the WKF Sport Jiu-Jitsu Canadian Championships, held recently in Hamilton. Rich Davidson, 20, claimed gold in the heavyweight novice division, winning both of his fights. Anthony Oro, also 20, won his first two lightweight black/brown belt division matches before losing a close battle on points in the gold-medal match, settling for silver. "There were some great guys out there," said Davidson, who wrestled as a teen at Holy Trinity before joining Buckley Jiu-Jitsu. "There are still many areas in which I can improve, but I was happy with my ability to control the pace and tempo of the fights, which is something we've been working on in class." Oro, a three-year veteran, said, "I am fairly happy with my performance, but there is nothing like serious competition to point out the holes in your game. I did well, but I know with a little more time in the dojo I can do even better next time." Sport Jiu-Jitsu is a fast-paced and action-filled style of combative sport, similar to the mixed martial arts made popular by the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

Hole-in-one for local golfer Newsham The ups-and-downs of golf were no more evident than during Graham Newsham's recent game at Royal Niagara Golf Club. The local resident was enjoying a solid round until the par-five sixth hole, when he recorded a nine. However, after making par on the next hole, Newsham scored an ace on the par-3 eighth hole. Newsham used an 8-iron, a Callaway X16 club he had recently purchased from a friend, to hit a shot that bounced once and rolled into the cup of the 142-yard hole.
