On November 2nd, as part of the Latvian Student Universiade, the bench press competition took place, with TSI students also participating. The competition was held in Riga, and our university was represented by Reinis Simanovičs, a master’s student in the Management of Information Systems programme, and Aleks Aleksandrs Binders, a bachelor’s student in the Robotics programme, both competing in the 83 kg weight category.
Reinis successfully pressed a 125 kg barbell, securing 4th place and missing a podium position by just 2.5 kg. Meanwhile, Aleks, competing for the first time, lifted 110 kg and claimed 6th place. In the overall team standings, TSI finished in 5th place.
We congratulate our students on their achievements and wish them success in future competitions!
We invite everyone to join our athletic team and reach new heights together!
