We are very proud of our 35 athletes who qualified and competed in the 2014 Summer Nationals in Columbus, Ohio — the world’s largest fencing tournament with over 4,300 participants! We are happy for our youngest fencers who excelled in the Y10 and Y12 age groups despite the fact that for some of them it was their first Nationals. We congratulate our Junior fencers who did great individually, as well as in teams where they showed fantastic team spirit and beat the strongest opponents including the gold and silver medalists from individuals.
Congratulations to all of our fencers and their families, whether you bravely competed at Nationals for the first time or skillfully earned national points and medals!
