UNC fencer Sarah Hanvy sings national anthem at Final Four
Posted Apr 2, 2017
In February, 2016, UNC sabre captain Sarah Hanvy was getting ready to compete at Duke’s Card Gym when, like any good fencer, she saw an opening and exploited it. “The P.A. system broke,” she said. That meant that officials couldn’t play the recording of the Star Spangled Banner to start the meet. “I’d always wanted to sing the national anthem,” Hanvy said.
