DCFCers blossomed at the 2016 Cherry Blossom Open. Club members took top eight spots in several events, and Victor Teelucksingh and Byron Baily even earned their As at this event.
Thanks to the University of Maryland Fencing Club, bout committee and referees for a well-run event, to Chantal Montrose for an awesome T-shirt design, and to all our competing fencers and their families. Thanks also to Coach David Ruskin for these photos that captured the beautiful spring weekend.
