Greensboro Fencers Qualify to Junior Olympics
The Downtown Fencing Club fielded five fencers in this years Junior Olympic Qualifiers held at the NBS Gym Raeligh. Fencers who qualify at this event are eligable to compete at the Junior Olympics. Nicole Agresto Qualified in both the under 17 and the under 19 epee, a very impressive feat for a 13 year old. Also from Greensboro were three fencers from Delta H fencing club, two may have qualified in under 17 foil. All in all a very good day for Greensboro women fencers! I would offer some play by plays, but I was face down in the computer running the event. Stats I have though, and they are below.
