Are any SJU athletes competing this year? Our fencing team has had a pretty good representation in the past, I don't know if they are still as strong, though.

I guess it's possible to get in some world-class athletes' heads, but I thought it was laughable that Le Clos thought some shadow boxing would intimidate a 19-time medalist.

Incredible accomplishment !!!!!!

May be the higest any (non-basketball, realize CM won 2 Gold's) SJU athlete has ever placed

Tom Farrell, won a bronze in the 800 meter run in The Mexico City Games (1968)

This surpasses Marillac's beer pong gold cup back when he was at SJU

I believe Keeth Smart (fencing) won silver in 2008.

I think his sister also won silver in 2008 but she didn't attend SJU.

Right you are ! Good catch !!

Keeth Thomas Smart[1] (born July 29, 1978) is a US sabre fencer who became the first American to gain the sport's #1 ranking for males. He received a silver medal at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing.[2][3]
