Champagne Challenge and D and Under Results
9/29/14
DCFC’s got talent at all levels of fencing! This weekend, DC Fencers Club hosted two tournaments, and club members took the podium spots in both.
Thirty six fencers from clubs as far as Pennsylvania attended DCFC’s first D & Under Senior Mixed Epee tournament on Saturday, and DCFCers swept six of the top eight spots.
Then on Sunday, at the first Epee Champagne Challenge of the season, DCFCers swept seven of the top eight spots.
Thanks to our meet managers and referees for your time and talent. Congratulations to all our fencers who got in the game, and a special salute to the following DCFC fencers.
