| Caique Seminar - Feb 24, 2008 - 2/25/2008 |
Prof. Caique demonstrating a guillotine defense with Greg Eldred | We had a great seminar with Professor Caique on Feb. 24th. It was good to have Caique back in Indianapolis showing us his incredible stuff. We had a great turnout, and Caique was happy to see everyone once again. This was the first time for several of the newer students to meet Prof. Caique, and they were impressed. Caique still manages to even impress the old timers! We look forward for Caique to return in June, for the Hoosier Open Tournament. |
