It didn’t take long for the PA Judo Club to make a name for themselves at the 2012 National Judo Championships in Toronto.

On the tournament’s opener Wednesday, Chelys Vallejo earned a bronze medal at the senior women 78kg and over category. Vallejo has a chance at another medal as she’s also competing in the veteran women’s class.

PA judokas Eden Mcpherson, Josie Lehner and Josh Guthrie are also competing. The tournament wraps up on Sunday.
