Disclaimer: Due to real world work, I have been in Europe for the past 4 weeks and the next 0.5 weeks. I’m taking advantage by doing some traveling and sightseeing at the end of the trip, which coincides with this year’s NCAA Women’s Swimming and Diving Championships. This post never got finished as I originally had planned. Unfortunately, the updates will be sparse, partly due to the time difference and partly due to me traveling between Venice, Florence, and Paris (yeah, life is hard for me). Nonetheless, it should be an interesting battle between Cal and Stanford that may not be decided until Saturday night.
