Not a sure Touch

Well, we would have thought that the Olympic Team USA for Women's Sabre would have taken the Gold today.

But, we would have been wrong.

The Team of Ward, Jacobson and Zagunis were able to sweep the Women's Individual Sabre Medals (Bronze, Silver, Gold respectively) on Saturday. With that kind of history after only a few days it was too easy to believe they were an automatic for the Team Event Gold medal.

But, alas - it was not to be.

They did make a great showing for the Bronze.

I salute these "Ladies of the Blade", thank them for making their country proud, and wish them God's speed back home.
