My Return to Judo Competition

Yesterday was my return to active Judo competition. A little over two years ago I tore my ACL, meniscus and fractured my leg. I had it reconstructed approximately 14 months ago.
I'd returned to BJJ competition and won but I had only recently begun making my way back to Randori in Judo practice. I took 3rd after a questionable call and a DQ due to the leg rule.

Below is one of my quick(er) matches from the senior elite/-73kg division at the Hometown Heroes Judo Tournament yesterday in Fayetteville, NC.

I hit a belt grip ouchigari type throw/takedown/whatever for Ippon.
