Crazy 88 Purple Belt Count Gets to 6

New Purple Belt David Z with World Silver Medalist, Brad Pearson, and 2X PanAm Bronze Medalist, Jon Delbrugge

David Zwanetz AKA “Lawyer Dave” was promoted to BJJ Purple Belt tonight.  Dave has been an integral part of the team since November 2007.  Since that time, he has coached the White Belt Competition Team, convinced his wife Cathy to begin training, and just recently took Silver at the 2010 Brazilian Jiu Jitsu World Championships.  Despite working full-time as a Howard County attorney, Dave trains 5-6 days a week without fail.  Crazy 88 has only promoted 5 Purple Belts in it’s history – Roberto Torralbas, Amie Turton, Mike Atkin, Malcolm Vaughan, Jon Delbrugge – and now the school is happy to have another join this elite group. 

Congratulations to David Zwanetz!
