Duane Hagstrom has been coaching weightlifting at Flagler Palm Coast High School for 19 years. During that time, he’s coached many state medalists (both boys and girls), with his first state champion being Robert Paxia in 2008 (who now is the head football coach at Lake Gibson Senior High School). Since then, five more have joined the exclusive club of champions and Isaiah Rivers, Domonique Bennett and Malakai Grant look to be the next group of Bulldogs to join the group. On Saturday, April 10th, FPC competed at the 3A-Region 1 championships where the team looked to qualify as many out of the tough region. Only three remained after Rivers finished second in the region for his weight division (129), Bennett finished third (154) and Grant took fifth in his respective weight division (199).
