She wins, we hope!

This is super cool to see the local community coming together around a hometown athlete. Nicely done Maplewood! Wish I was there to participate.

Is she guaranteed to be in the team event?

Someone just posted this article highlighting her Anti-Israel tweets (which I confirmed still exist).

Shameful! What a total disgrace!

Posts here are for the viewing party.

Mr. Goldberg,

This thread had to be re-done to eliminate political discussions. Please take your comment elsewhere. Thank you.

She is listed as being in the team event.

Team going for the bronze medal this afternoon (MSNBC maybe?) against Italy. Lost to Russia this morning so can't go for gold.

4 pm MSNBC

Viewing at New Jersey Fencing Alliance at 50 Burnett Avenue (near DeHart Park) at 4:00 p.m. TODAY!  Fun to hear Frank Mustilli's explanations of saber fencing for those of us who are clueless at to what is happening!  

bronze!!!

Well done! 

Another cool photo of our local hero taken after she scored a victory!

It has been fun and rewarding to follow her journey.

Michael, stuff it !

It really makes me mad that you are posting these old comments.  Try to enjoy the present.

I wonder if the Saudis would agree to apportion a fraction of their desert as a sort of preserve to wander in, I'm fairly certain Egypt will not.

When Palestine is restored, it's going to be another long, thirsty footslog.
