Who We Are
Longhorn Powerlifting was established in the 1980s and has maintained its presence at the University of Texas to this day. A competitive sport club under the division of Recreational Sports, Longhorn Powerlifting (LPL) competes at local and national level competitions through the USA Powerlifting (USAPL) federation. Our team’s annual competitions are the Collegiate Cup in San Antonio in the fall semester, the Aggie Showdown in College Station in early spring, and Collegiate Nationals hosted in various locations.
What We’re Fundraising For
Collegiate Nationals 2023 will be our second return to the USA Powerlifting national stage since Covid-19 derailed our plans in 2020 and 2021. In 2022, we brought 33 lifters to compete in Chicago, Illinois and left with 22 top 10 finishes across all weight classes, including having two athletes qualify for USAPL Mega Nationals by winning their respective categories. We hope to bring our reigning champions back to reclaim their titles and climb the team podiums even higher this year. Therefore, our goal is to raise funds that will be used explicitly for expenses that will make our trip to Nationals possible, which includes hotel costs, transportation, and meet entry fees. These gifts, moral support, and even your time reading about our goals means the world to Longhorn Powerlifting as we attempt to bring even more qualifiers to one of the largest stages in the powerlifting world.
Your Impact
Our members will be able to compete at the highest level with our donor's gifts. Not only will the donations allow us to purchase competition-grade equipment; it will allow more of our qualified members to compete at the biggest stage in collegiate powerlifting: Collegiate Nationals. Our members are dedicated to the sport and the donors' gifts will let the team members fulfill their desires and goals to win a national title. We recognize our sport as a niche arena of the athletic world and therefore treasure all contributions to our cause. Hook 'em!
