Congratulations to our GMAU Fencers Alex Ganahl, Drew Myers, and Andrew for their performance in the Purdue Spring Open épée tournament on January 31. All three made it to the second round or direct elimination, and had some well-fought bouts.
Congratulations, too, to our friends at Indianapolis Fencing Club who had three fencers in the top six places for the épée tournament, and the winner of the foil event.

Happy birthday, Rosie!
Today is Rosie Lyons' birthday. Everyone make sure to wish her a happy birthday!
I had a great trip to Mexico City for work, although I missed the fencing. I was able to visit the Castle of Chapultepec, where the U.S. Marines earned the blood stripe they wear on their dress uniforms.

I also visited Teotihuacan and climbed the Pyramid of the Sun (world's third-largest pyramid), the Pyramid of the Moon, and the small pyramid of Quetzlcoatl. It was very interesting to stand on something built in the second century A.D., and to see artifacts I had only read about in books.
I had opportunity to witness to several folks, and hopefully planted some seed that will bear fruit some day.
