Anchor Drop, March 10, 2023: Downtown ‘Dores

Good morning!

Optional Musical Accompaniment

We have paid the Tigahs back for a few weeks ago. We're back at Bridgestone again tonight, putting on for our city. Be there or be a square. (Actually, assuming you went to Vanderbilt, it's too late. You're already a square!)

We'll still be missing Liam Robbins, who has been named a Defensive Player of the Year Finalist, but we won last night thanks to what Athletics is calling “Baby Dores,” so the future is bright. don't give up hope. Colin Smith, Lee Dort, and Paul Lewis are all giving it their all with the rest of the guys and hopefully they'll be here as long as we can have them.

Other good news? Beatrice Juskeviciute is headed to Indoor Track Nationals while swimming is in the top 20 of 50 teams at their meet.

In bad news, men's tennis lost to Orange School, and it wasn't particularly close.

See y'all in the thread, with the fate of the team on the line!
