CFFA update for 7/3

Three fencers going today.  Erica Julien competed in the Vet 70 women’s sabre.  She went 4-4 in her opening round.  That left her seeded 5th.  She then pulled a minor upset of the 4th seed.  Unfortunately she could not defeat the number one seed, but still came out with a bronze medal, her best showing in sabre at this level to date.

Nicole Milewski was in the Y-14 women’s epee.  She went 3-2 in her pool, but lost another 14-15 bout to a woman seeded higher than her in her first DE.  She finished 89/172.

In the Div II Men’s epee, Robert Thomas ran into a bunch of young bucks in his pool.  He went 1-5, but that unfortunately was not quite enough to make the cut into the next round.

Have a happy Fourth of July tomorrow.  Out here, Erica got invited to be on a Women’s Vet sabre team and Nicole has the Women’s Div III epee.
