We had a couple of fencers in Charlottesville last weekend for the annual 'Back to School Brawl' tournament. Stephen fenced in the C and under epee on Sunday, a solid C2 event, and finished in the middle of the pack. Now onward and upward to the next tournament!
Rhiannon fenced in both the unrated foil event on Saturday and the C and under foil on Sunday. A month ago she had a beautiful run at the win in the unrated foil event up in Manassas but finished in second, just missing earning her rating. This weekend? Not a problem. Not only did she win Saturday's unrated foil event, earning her E12, she also finished 7th in the C and under foil, which also merits an E rating! And these two events were much tougher, making the E that much swEEter, I'm thinking.
Want to get out there and hit up a tournament or six yourself? The 2012-13 Virginia Division tournament schedule has been posted and will be added to the clubs' calendars soon. Start making notes of which events you'd like to hit and we'll get you ready to go!
