Smiley rivals: Lepri repeats at Euro 2011 and beats JT. Photo: Dan Rod.
Check out who came out on top in New Jersey, where the winners took home all-expenses-paid trips to Abu Dhabi in April.
It’s worth noting that the World Pro is open to all athletes, the tryouts only serve to provide travel and board and to the winners of each weight group and determine who will figure at the top of each bracket.
Check out the results of the finals and check back for an exclusive photo gallery taken by our own Dan Rod.
