Keeth Smart

[Carol]

Well, the USFA hasn't posted anything yet, but hopefully they
will get around to publicly recognizing Keeth's recent accomplishments.

When's the last time that a US fencer would consistently make
the finals in their event? Look at the string of results Keeth
has racked up since the end of May last year:

Boston - 3rd; Havana - 2nd; World Championships - 10th;
Moscow - 2nd; London - 1st; Budapest - 3rd...

And now Keeth is ranked 2nd in the world -- I would think that
this would make him the highest ranked US fencer ever..... I
hope the USFA puts him in for the USOC Athlete of the month,
because Keeth definitely deserves recognition for all his hard work!!!

I believe Felicia Zimmerman finished the season in first place several years
back. And how about the Sabrewomen?

I was speaking of the Senior ranks, not the Juniors.....

Keeth deserves all the recognition he can get.
