Results from the Big One (held today at Smith College) will be available shortly on the Prise de Fer website: http://www.prisedefer.com

I just want to thank Wayne Jenness, Brian Bower, and Taro Yama****a for the UNBELIEVABLE job they did organizing and running this event. 8:30 start, 460 fencers, done at 4.

Probably the best run collegiate event I've ever been to.

Must be a pretty lame party if you're posting on here...

I know who won some of the events, I'm anxious to see the results posted

.. thanks in advance!!

Nice, results are finally up. 3 gold medals for my boys (and girls), not too shabby. Also, Sacred Heart--when did they get some decent fencers? These appear to be significantly stronger results than I remember them ever putting up.

As a ref I'd also like to thank the organizers and the other referees for staying focused and getting the job done.
I'd also like to thank the fencers, who were for the most part in the right places at the right times.

It appears as though we're pulling for the same dog in this fight, but I think you quoted the wrong part of my post.

I think you should rename the event the "I'm Comin' to Join Ya, Elizabeth".

DavidX · 11-08-2009, 04:22 PM

Except for URI, which was as organized as a bag full of wet mice.

A big thanks to Wayne & Co!

Hermit crabs. You have to keep in mind they're all beach bums.

Freshmen always do well. Sure I'm thrilled with her victory, but I'll be really impressed if she wins it her senior year too.

Not that he's bitter or anything. Nope. Of course not.

I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to be bitter about?
