California's Strongest Man - Student at CCCC

April 29, 2008

California’s strongest man - Cerro Coso Community College, Eastern Sierra College Center, Mammoth Campus student, John Johnson pictured with his four year old son. The Cerro Coso Community College, Eastern Sierra College Center, Mammoth Campus would like to introduce John Johnson, one of their students who when not taking college classes competes worldwide in the United States Powerlifting Federation (USPF) events.  Johnson, who has been lifting for the past 25 years, recently swept all events in the California State competition in Los Alamitos, CA by taking first place in Bench Press, Dead Lift, and Squats.  For details, photos, and to see his ranking in each event, you can visit the Powerlifting State website at: www.powerliftingca.com/MeetResults.htm or www.USPF.com. “The next competition happen in Rhode Island on June 28 and 29, 2008, then on to Vienna, Austria for the world championship – so stay tuned to see how John does,” stated Deanna Campbell, Director of the Cerro Coso Community College Eastern Sierra College Center.
 
During his free time, Johnson has been a student at Cerro Coso’s Mammoth Campus for two years and stated, “I would like to thank the teaching and support staff of the College for being supportive and nice to me, even before I won. Don’t let anyone put a finger in your face and say you can’t do it (as far as higher education)!  You can accomplish whatever your goals are and succeed by believing you can.”
 
Johnson would also like to thank his family, especially his lovely wife who is the Pharmacist at Vons in Mammoth Lakes.  He stated, “She is my 100% supporter.  In short, she is my world.”
