A preliminary look at the leaders.

 

The 2015 CrossFit Liftoff, powered by Rogue, has ended.

Score submissions closed an hour ago, which means it’s time for a preliminary look at the leaders. Keep in mind that the leaderboard will remain in flux over the next 48 hours as affiliates validate scores, and CrossFit officials review videos. Until validation and review are complete, the scores and rankings remain unofficial. 

As of 5 p.m. PT on Monday, Nov. 9:

The heaviest lifts went to heavyweight Olympic weightlifters. Olympian Sarah Robles and fellow Team USA member Caine Wilkes set the heaviest snatch, clean and jerk, and weightlifting total for their respective divisions.

Robles' score appeared on the leaderboard right before the close of score submissions, shifting fellow Olympian Holley Mangold from first to second on the two lifts. Robles snatched 258 lb. and clean and jerked 328 lb. for a 586-lb. total.  

Her teammate, 28-year-old Wilkes, set the heaviest lifts of any male athlete with a 390-lb. snatch and 480-lb. clean and jerk (870-lb. total). 

The pound-for-pound rankings revealed small but mighty athletes like Carolina Valencia Hernandez. The 109-lb. athlete snatched 158 lb. and clean and jerked 216 lb.—just shy of double body weight—for a score of 3.431. Valencia Hernandez won the gold medal at the 2007 Pan American Games in the 48-kg division while representing Mexico.

Games champions Rich Froning and Samantha Briggs, as well as Lauren Fisher*, posted over 500 reps on the 12-minute AMRAP.  

In the Teenage Division, 15-year-old Harrison Maurus snatched 300 lb. and clean and jerked 374 lb. to set a 674-lb. total, 3.874 pound-for-pound and 379 Sinclair total, winning everything except the workout.
