Bumped. The thoughts and prayers of the entire Bruin Nation go out to the Bachmans. GO BRUINS. -N
Sad new: The parents of former UCLA volleyball player Elisabeth "Wiz" Bachman were attacked while visiting a point of interest in Beijing.
According to Tony Pierce at the L.A. Times
In a stunning and tragic event, Todd and Barbara Bachman, parents of a former Bruin volleyball player and the in-laws of the current U.S. men's volleyball coach, were attacked Saturday in Beijing. Todd Bachman died of stab wounds, and his wife remains hospitalized in serious condition.
This is a deeply saddening turn of events. Our hearts go out the Bachman family and we hope that Barbara Bachman recovers fully from her injuries.

Just WOW
I read this story today. Didn’t see the UCLA angle in the Wash Post article. How terrible. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

A good article on Yahoo
Sounds like her parents embraced everything UCLA.

It was horrible enough
To know that they were such a big part of the Bruin family makes this so much worse. As if this Olympics wasn’t tainted enough, now there’s a cold blooded murder on the books.
