Going into those final days, we were concerned. Even that first day [of the women's competition] we were in a tough spot because we only made up [11 of the 24 bouts] and knew they had 13 real tough bouts the next [and final] day. But our girls fenced amazing and Ohio State didn't come through and it came out in our favor. |
It was really encouraging to see her compete that well. She gained a lot of respect for being such a tough competitor. I think it was also inspiring for all the girls competing at the end. |
We definitely have a shot at another title this year. And it looks like it is going to be another good match-up against Ohio State. |
