Habersham Central graduate Corey Mote finished third in the MuscleMania Universe & Expo competition on Saturday in Miami.

It was the professional bodybuilding debut for Mote, who earned his status after winning the MuscleMania 2010 Fitness Britain National Championships as an amateur.

Mote competed Saturday alongside 20 professionals, with international judges critiquing each contestant’s build based on symmetry, definition, size and presentation.

Replays of the event can be seen On Demand through July 18.
