This photo is amazing, go kill it Paul!!
He’s ready! Let’s do this Duke! 🙂
What a great job you coaches have done in preparing Duke for this experience. CFHSV is blessed to have the coaches we do!
The Duke, the Man, CFHSV’s champ! We are so proud of you and are exited to watch you compete brother! You work hard every WOD and deserve this opportunity. Best of luck and God bless.
Time to go forth and conquer Paul, leave it all on the field, with no regrets! You deserve to be there and have put in the hard work! We are all proud of you and I hope you can here all of our cheers from Huntsville, Alabama!
Go kill it Paul! You are ready!!!
This quote is from the original Duke and its appropriate for CFHSV very own DUKE.
“Young fella, if you’re looking; for trouble I’ll accommodate ya.”
Give them hell Paul and give them lots of trouble.
GO. SO. HARD.
Eye of the tiger!!
We are proud of you and behind you all the way!!
Game time! Go get ’em Paul!!!!
The Cali entourage is just a tiny fraction of all of the people behind you. Your CFHSV family will be cheerin loud!!! We are so proud. You’ve put in the work now give ’em hell
The Man. The Myth. The Legend. So Proud.
For all of you “Under 50” folks…..you can only hope to aspire some day to what this man is doing.
Just saw Duke and he looks strong, determined, and ready to roll. I can’t wait to see that signature swagger when he walks onto that field. If there is some AC DC playing then his competition better pack it up and head home. Youve come this far through hardwork, sweat, and sacrifice. No matter the outcome you are an inspiration to all the athletes that have had the honor of training with you. Leave it all on the field this week….then buy me a steak and some good whiskey for coming all the way out here. Hahahaha. Love you buddy.
Let’s do this, Paul!
Everyone is so proud of your dedication and commitment to fulfilling your goals! It will be an absolute honor to wear my Duke shirt into that stadium tomorrow!
Can’t wait to watch you kill it!
Such a stud! Good luck Paul!
