Earnest becomes most decorated athlete in Bozeman history
SAND HILLS, Fla. (WMBB) – Bozeman senior weightlifter, Evan Earnest won two gold medals at the FHSAA State Championships, wrapping up his high school career with a school record three state titles. Earnest took gold in both the Olympic and Traditional events, following behind his gold medal in traditional in 2024. Earnest compiled a 520 lb. total for Olympic and a 640 lb. total for Traditional (bench press and clean and jerk) which was just shy of the state record he was aiming for. He says in a couple years his brother might come behind him and break his records. 'I think it's pretty cool,' Earnest said. 'I'm happy to be able to do that and hopefully inspire some people to also join weightlifting and do good at weightlifting. My little brother, Ethan is able to do the same thing. He's doing weightlifting along with me. So, you'll probably be interviewing him within the next couple of years.' Earnest says his next step after high school is most likely joining a USAW team in effort to reach national or world competition. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
