...still remains inconsistent and has lost several close bouts, including one to Brown’s Chris Ayer’s 6-4 in OT two weeks ago. Lehigh’s No. 3 Troy Letters should win this category, and Cornell’s No. 14 Matt Palmer will probably meet him in the championship bout.

But Palmer-Amaning found his new-found skills served him well. “It is a very useful skill to know how to turn a girl around,” he explains. Kabue, though, has a slightly less positive view of the practical benefits of learning to dance at Harvard. “I think...
