shows in how he carries himself through his leadership skills and diligent practices, not
only at our dojo but at other dojos and judo activities. David is a member of North High
School wrestling team and practices jujitsu on Saturdays besides his other athletic and
scholastic activities. At local tournaments, David also enjoys refereeing and has earned
