You might remember Vyn as the rockstar who took 3rd at Yale this weekend. He is also an amazing fencer. The question is: does he use his rhetorical super powers to psych out his opponents?

Vyn Le took 3rd in Oratory at @Yale's 2021 invitational. All you need to do is be honest, speak from the heart, and you'll change the world one speech at a time. #think ghost #hgp4n6

Mike Georges makes it to the top 60 performers in Program Oral Interp at @speechanddebate's 2021 Nationals. Mike is proof that if you want to get people to open their hearts, you have to speak from yours.

Vyn Le ends his 2020-2021 Forensics season as one of the top 102 performers in Original Oratory. Vyn's speech on Negativity Bias has made our team truly find the bright side of all events we faced this year.
