On April 17-18, UC Berkeley’s taekwondo team secured first place in the championship division (black belts only) of the 35th National Collegiate Taekwondo Championships, making this Cal’s 31st win out of 35 National Collegiate Taekwondo Championships titles and its 15th consecutive win. This year’s championship, estimated to have included competitors from nearly 60 accredited U.S. academic institutions, was held at Metro State College in Denver, Colorado. Despite entering the competition with a very young group, over half of which was new to the team, Cal was able to defend its title as national champions within this continuously growing and increasingly competitive sport. The team was led by head coach Dr. Russell Ahn; assistant coaches Sam Lee, Bobak Pezeshki, Hyungkyung Na; and team captains Michael Chong and Olivia Ngai.

On March 6, three teams were sent to Eugene, Oregon, to represent UC Berkeley at the 14th Annual Collegiate Wushu Competition held at the University of Oregon. There was an exceptional competitor turnout this year, with over 150 competitors from 20 schools across the country. Cal team members took top honors in some of the most difficult and competitive events.

UC Berkeley’s top team, consisting of Jeff Lee, Adam Freund, Amanda Lam, Eleanor Yang, Emily Hsu, and Justin Leong, earned an impressive perfect score in the team competition to win the title of Wushu Collegiate Team Champion for the second year in a row.

Congratulations to all our competitors!

Reminder: The 18th Annual Chinese Martial Arts Tournament (CMAT) takes place on the UC Berkeley campus on May 1.
