Results from the North American Cup in Portland!

The club had another fantastic showing at the North American Cup in Portland! We sent 4 fencers, two won medals and the other two scored national points! In the Youth 14 Women's Saber Avery Youngblood finished 6th. In the Youth 14 Men's Saber Connor Gibson also placed 6th! Pictures from the medal podium will be posted soon. Blake Gordon and Khai-Leif Nguyen-Hille both made the top 32 in their events and will earn points for their national rankings! I'd also like to congratulate our friends from Houston, Chris Ahn finished 14th in the Youth 14 Men's Saber!
