Alannah Winland, 12, of Spirit Lake won silver and bronze medals at the 1th annual Friendship Karate Tournament in Puyallup Wash., on March 19. Because there were limited entries in the girls division Alannah, her parents and her instructor Mike “Ziggy” Siegfried decided to allow her to compete against older, higher-ranked boys. Alannah won a silver medal in weapons forms and a bronze medal in point sparring. Alannah lives and trains karate in Spirit Lake. She will be attending multiple tournaments in Oregon, California, and Las Vegas this year. Alannah is pictured above her mom, Shannon, and dad, T.C.
