Since I'm not going to be refereeing at this event, I trust that no one will take offense if I say I predict Tees to win?

I'll second David. Tees.

You know David, you've got another student registered. They might be offended.

Tees is the favorite, granted, but all Latimer needs is for Tees to be just a little off her feed at that moment and it could turn around.

8 pre-registered... I've already asked KD5MDK to remind me to bring my gear, and his body cords (since mine are not worth the wire they're made of and I haven't had/taken time to fix them). I'm not signed up to do anything but ref all weekend, but this way I'll be prepared for the usual eventuality, and my vote went with "someone else" just in case!

So who else would you think I would vote for? Let's see... My Daughter Melissa , or anyone trying to hit my daughter . She fights better when she's in a foul mood and complaining about feeling sick. I was thinking about feeding her McDonalds and poking her with a stick. Unbeatable. ;D Regards, DadTees

That's just too funny. Do you mind if I post an excerpt on fencing.net in the "Fencing Diet" thread?

Congratulations to Cathy Latimer, proving why she is #1 in the Section. That said, I couldn't be prouder of my daughter Melissa. On Saturday she was impaled during the semi-final DE and had to take a 10 minute injury timeout. [She paried a clean lunge and got stuck hard right where her thigh meets pelvis. A little blood and a big bruise.] She carried on, basically on one leg, and was narrowly beaten (15-14) by Alexa Jeffus for the U-19 Sabre. Jeffus is very quick and Mel would have needed all her legs to beat her. Excellent bout. After a night of icing, stretching, etc., Mel fought her way through the Sr. Women's sabre to face Latimer in the finals. She fought well but couldn't match Cathy's speed and talent. I asked her how her leg was after the bout and she said, "Did you see my flunge?". Somehow I'd missed it, but then she smiled and said that when the opening was there she tried to flunge and her leg said no. She also told me that Cathy was really fighting well and it wasn't the leg that kept Mel from winning. P.S.: Thank God for the CEFC Women . Their performance (2nd & 3rd) saved us men from a rude workout on Monday. Regards, DadTees
