We had a fair number of people up at Mid-South’s Big Blue this weekend. Joe Mclaughlin lost his first DE in Men’s sabre to eventual winner Jeff Kallio, 10-15. Catherine Shin of UNCW, won her first Women’s foil DE, but then lost to eventual winner Tammy Jackson, in a close 12-15 match. In Sunday’s epee, Erica Julien and Nicole Milewski both got points against Leslie Marx (Two time US National Champion, Olympian, current Vet 50 National Champion, etc.). Erica was 1-4 in the pool while Nicole was 2-3. Samantha Milewski went 2-2 in her pool. Unfortunately, all three lost their first DEs, so Sam was 10th, Nicole 11th, and Erica 13th in a solid B1 Women’s event.
Regular practice this week. Tu/Th nights, Friday at Camp Lejeune, and there should be a Saturday practice. Don’t forget the floor fee for 7:30 pm evening practices has gone up to $10. If you are coming once a week or any 4 times during the month, it is cheaper to do the monthly dues of $35. That gives you access to all the practices.
We got September 9th for our first event of the year from the
Division and it should be posted to askfred within the next few
days, hopefully. We will have open foil, epee, and sabre
events.
