Yesterday, the U.S. won in handball, softball, twice in beach volleyball, and didn’t lose a squash match.  The bowlers all finished top 3.  Hopefully, it stays the same today.

Well, I’m here to rain on the parade. Both of our men’s singles in Squash have lost in their quarterfinal matches today. Beach Volleyball (the women) have already won their group though.
