The gymnasium was packed as Jimmy Torrance stepped into the ring for the final event of the evening that was to decide the boxing championship of the university.

체육관은 만원이었고, 지미 토랜스는 그날 저녁 마지막 경기인 대학 복싱 챔피언십을 결정짓는 경기를 위해 링에 올라섰습니다.

Drawing to a close were the nearly four years of his college career--profitable years, Jimmy considered them, and certainly successful up to this point.

그의 대학 생활 약 4년이 마무리되어 가고 있었다. 지미는 그 시간을 유익했고, 지금까지는 확실히 성공적이었다고 생각했다.

In the beginning of his senior year he had captained the varsity eleven, and in the coming spring he would again sally forth upon the diamond as the star initial sacker of collegedom.

그는 고등학교 마지막 학년 초에 야구부 주장을 맡았고, 다가오는 봄에는 대학 야구의 스타 선발 타자로서 다시 한번 야구장에 나설 것입니다.

His football triumphs were in the past, his continued baseball successes a foregone conclusion--if he won to-night his cup of happiness, and an unassailably dominant position among his fellows, would be assured, leaving nothing more, in so far as Jimmy reasoned, to be desired from four years attendance at one of America's oldest and most famous universities.

그의 축구에서의 승리는 과거의 일이었고, 야구에서의 지속적인 성공은 기정사실이었다. 만약 그가 오늘 밤 우승컵을 들어 올린다면, 그의 행복은 물론 동료들 사이에서 확고부동한 우위를 점하게 될 것이며, 지미의 생각으로는 미국에서 가장 오래되고 유명한 대학 중 하나에서 4년간 보낸 시간에서 더 바랄 것은 없을 것이다.

The youth who would dispute the right to championship honors with Jimmy was a dark horse to the extent that he was a freshman, and, therefore, practically unknown.

지미와 챔피언십 영예를 놓고 다툴 젊은이는 신입생이었기 때문에 사실상 알려지지 않은 다크호스였습니다.

He had worked hard, however, and given a good account of himself in his preparations for the battle, and there were rumors, as there always are about every campus, of marvelous exploits prior to his college days.

그러나 그는 열심히 노력하여 전투 준비에서 훌륭한 성과를 거두었고, 모든 캠퍼스에 늘 그렇듯이 대학 시절 이전의 놀라운 업적에 대한 소문이 돌았습니다.

It was even darkly hinted that he was a professional pugilist.

심지어 그가 전문 권투 선수였다는 암시까지 있었다.

As a matter of fact, he was the best exponent of the manly art of self-defense that Jimmy Torrance had ever faced, and in addition thereto he outweighed the senior and outreached him.

사실 그는 지미 토랜스가 지금까지 상대했던 사람 중 자기방어술에 가장 능한 사람이었고, 게다가 그는 그보다 체격도 크고 팔 길이도 더 길었습니다.
