If you are honest and have any memory left, you, like me, have a very, very painful memory of (hopefully no more than one or two) an uncharacteristic athletic performance in High school or college. My guess is that if it was in an “individual” sport, it may stand out even more than if a stinkeroo was team involved (team sports sorta-kinda spread the pain just a little).
I sensed in my gut that our bb team was about due for one of those stinkers. It is (almost) inevitable. Hoped it wasn’t, but it happened. Again, anyone on here that played at a decent level knows what I am talking about. And 40 years later, it still stings.
Trying to say: these are great young men. Those that are hardest on them probably never competed beyond the High School chess club. We need to support them publicly as much as possible.
GO BLUE
