The North American Grappling Association (NAGA) came to Saint Louis, Missouri on March 23, 2013. The submission grappling tournament took place at the University of Missouri Saint Louis campus. Hundreds of competitors with grappling disciplines from all over the region compete at this tournament. This year two judokas represented their judo/jiujitsu dojos and fought well. Adnan Gutic displayed his patented awesome ne waza on his way to a 2nd place finish in the Gi division and a 3rd place finish in the No gi category. Dave Copeland showed no signs of rust after a brief hiatus from the mat. Big D displayed a hefty arsenal of throws and submissions finishing first in the Masters Gi division and 2nd in the Heavyweight No gi division. This is only the beginning for NAGA as the submission tournament will return to Saint Louis in the fall.
