No, Andre was the only *blind* player at the States. Other then myself, visually impaired. VI judo players almost always end up fighting sighed players, unless it’s a major blind event, such as the Paralympic Trials or such other event just for low and no vision players.

It’s part of the sport… Chokes (Strangles) are permitted after the age of 13… Judo’s strangle holds attack the Carotid Artery, thus cutting off blood to the brain, and you go nappy-nap; on average in about 6 to 8 seconds. As soon as the hold is release you wake up with a nice head rush.

An honest play-by-play with final scores. Great job, Rich.
