This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Just one was needed - Muhari by lavieenor
If Muhari could have stayed in school this year instead of having to join the Hungarian team mid-year, we could have won it all. She likely would have replicated her 19 victories from 2023 which would have given us enough victories for the National Championship again.
Edit to add: The team wins as a team and loses as a team. All of our fencers battled valiantly. There are always many "ifs" that could have resulted in a victorious year. It was an amazing feat to qualify 12 fencers and then to be within 8 bouts of a very strong Harvard squad was a great result to the year.
