Sports
The greatest pain in sports can be summed up in two simple phrases: coming close and falling short. Knowing that you almost made it to the top of the podium, but just could not make that final push might be the pinnacle of pain in athletics. The only way to add insult to injury in this situation is to watch a rival team ascend as you fall away. The Georgetown women’s lacrosse team knows this feeling all too well. Due to a loss to Syracuse in the semi-final of the Big East tournament last season, when the Hoyas see orange, they’ll be seeing red.
