Results from the Lynn Krupey Memorial Iron Maiden held yesterday in the Tileston Gym. It was a small group, but we did get a number of our fencers to participate in their first USA Fencing event. The epee was won by Kenyatta Sanford, with Nicole Milewski in second, and Nora Reber and Erica Julien (all of CFFA) tied for third. Nora improved a couple of positions to win the foil event and get back her E rating. Taylor May of CFFA/UNCW was second. The thirds were split by Layla Tart of All-American Fencing and Lydia Webb of Apex. Thanks to Brendan for reffing, Herman for armoring, and Zemi for managing the event. Thanks to everyone who helped with set up and clean up. April 13th is the
next Apex unsanctioned set of events. Check askfred for times. The
events are Y 10/12 boys and girls foil, Senior Men’s and Women’s foil,
and mixed epee. All are unsanctioned.

This week will be pretty regular as far as practice.

Some
of our people are planning to go to the Pirate Olympics in Charleston,
South Carolina, also on that date. A sanctioned open epee, which is now
a B2 and just needs another A to be an A event; with unsanctioned 1 touch and Y 14 epee. See askfred for more
details. Talk to Brendan about ride
possibilities. We have at least a half dozen fencers going at moment.

If you live out be Boone, App State is also holding a tournament. Foil and epee are small but sabre is fairly large.
St. Mary will be on Spring Break the week on 4/15 – 4/19, so no afterschool. I am planning to have a homeschool practice on 4/17 and all the evening practices are a go. No Topsail or Camp Lejeune practice on Good Friday.
The
response was pretty overwhelming to have the next youth event on the
20th, so that is when it will be. Foil at 10 am, Epee at 1:30 pm, and Sabre at 3:30 pm. Again, refereeing help is greatly appreciated.

St. Mary is also off on Monday the 22nd, so no afterschool that day either. The beginner class will meet that evening and everything will be back to normal on Tuesday.
May 4th is our Stab-a-thon. The Open epee looks like it could become a B event. The Open foil need a number of ranked fencers and bodies. The E and under epee needs a number of people and two more Es to be able to give away a D.
The May beginner class will start on Tuesday, May 6th.
On the 11th Apex will have another one of their youth events.
All-American in Fayettevilel is having unrated (Meaning only U fencers) with men’s and women’s foil. If their are 6 people then someone will get an E. They are also having an open epee. see askfred.
