Congratulations!! To Matt and Ken from Frederick Fight Club for their well deserved promotion to Brown Belt on Saturday July 23rd. Professor Vicente Junior put the guys through a tough workout as usual and both lived up to the challenge showing they were more than ready to move on to the next level. The test concluded with some very nice words from both students that we all appreciated. Special thanks to Gil, Jay, and Nate for making the drive to support the test.

Belt Promotions!
On Sunday, July 17th, we had our first belt promotion since Professor Vicente Junior relocated to Maryland and made BJJ Conquest his headquarters location. The test went great and consisted of an hour and a half of non-stop, fast paced rolling, followed by a question and answer period for the students testing. All those who tested proved, without doubt, they were ready to promote.
CONGRATS to new BJJ Blue Belts, Jay, Jake, Brian, Adam M., Adam Z, Mike, Mindy, and Sean.
Vicente Jr. also surprised owners/instructors Lance Trippett and Kail Bosque with a long awaited and well deserved promotion to Brown Belt. Congratulations to both!
Special thanks to all students from BJJ Conquest and affiliated schools who were there to support and train with all those testing. "Individual commitment to a group effort - that is what makes a team work, a company work, a society work, a civilization work. ~Vince Lombardi

Conquest makes the paper !!!
BJJ Conquest was featured in The Capital on July 12th, 2011. They wrote a great profile article on Nate, focusing on what being an MMA fighter and instructor mean to him. Check it out at http://www.hometownannapolis.com/news/top/2011/07/12-24/Fort-Meade-lieutenant-doubles-as-cage-fighter.html.
Don't forget, belt test this Sunday, July 17th during open mat; come by to support your teammates, and get in a good roll. Also, keep training hard for the US Grappling tournament on August 13th. We're hoping for a repeat, dominating, 1st place finish, so whether you're competing or not, we need you on the mat.
