Hayley Tennier, Shodan from Thunder Bay, just competed in the World Kickboxing Karate Association’s Championship in Orlando, Florida, yesterday.  She placed 5^th in Women’s Continuous Fighting, in her first World Championships as an Adult Fighter. Tennier was headed towards the medal rounds when her fight was called in the third round by the referee due to Tennier’s sudden bout of illness in the ring.  Hayley grabbed a bronze last year in the Under 18 Continuous Fighting Division.  Congratulations, Hayley!
