Don't back down from the Monday crossword. This week’s puzzle was constructed by Hope Allchin and Matthew Stock, and edited by Hoang-Kim Vu. Hope and Matthew are graduate students at the best institution in the SEC. They love spending time outside, attending volleyball games and gymnastics meets, and encouraging a friendship between their cat and two-month-old baby. Matthew has published hundreds of puzzles; this is Hope's first.
Defector crosswords, launched in partnership with our friends at AVCX, run every Monday. If you’re interested in submitting a puzzle to us, you can read our guidelines HERE.
