WESTON CRASE

2008 Iowa USTA State Champion Novice Boys Double Mini
2006 National USTA Champion Beginning Boys Double Mini
2006 National USTA Champion Beginning Boys Trampoline
2006 Iowa USTA Reserve Champion Beginning Boys Trampoline

Weston Crase joined the action in 2006.   We enjoyed following both the Crase boys in competition this year.  Weston joined the Winterset Shooting Stars in the fall of 2005 and competed in the Beginning Boys age 7-8 category.  After three years of watching Colby compete, Weston was excited to finish his first year as the 2006 Iowa USTA Reserve Champion for Beginning Boys Trampoline.  He advanced to Nationals in June in both trampoline and double mini and came home the National Champion in his division in both categories.  Quite a first year.  We are looking for big things from Weston in the 2007 Season.
