maligned Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) Sarah Hildebrandt just lost a couple minutes ago to a Japanese girl and takes the silver at the ultra-tough Ivan Yarygin tournament in Russia. It is regarded as the toughest senior-level tournament in the world outside of worlds. Many, many world and olympic champs have not medaled at the Yarygin. Our own Alli Ragan, a newly minted world medalist, fell in the first round yesterday. Sarah picked up 3 hard-fought wins before falling in the final. Her progression continues in a very exciting direction. Edited January 28, 2017 by maligned awood2 and rdrodd1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportsfangms Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I have a Wayne Gretzky poster in my office that reads, "You miss 100% of the shots you don't take", so despite the minor smell of desperation, I back your moves!

awood2 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Sara, I have been a fan since you were in middle school. I tell young people (and grown adults, HELL anyone that will listent) your story all the time. You are such a great role model. Keep breaking barriers. Keep raising the bar. We are all behind you!

grecoref Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Not only is it one of the toughest tournaments in the world, it's one of the toughest places in the world. Located in the Siberian Region of Russia, it's nothing for the temps to be -20F. I was there in 1993 and I am still cold. awood2 and HolsteinKing 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
