Held a large NCFL meet yesterday. The conference was 6 coed team A teams and maybe 5-6 B teams last year. Yesterday we had 6 men’s A teams, 5 women’s A teams, and 7 B teams. For the men, Coastal Christian came in 1st at 4-1, with the win coming on indicators. Oliver Galbraith was 15-0. Mack (It helps if you put last names on the forms) was 9-3. This was especially impressive as they were a two person team. Hoggard was 1-5. In the women’s A Hoggard was 2-2 and was led by Cali Pray at 5-4. In the B Division a CFFA team of Emma Filer, Reaghan Juelke, and Nicole Milewski went 5-1 and finished 2nd. Emma was 11-1 and Reaghan went 10-3. Our other team of Will Golder, Logan Pfeifle, and Harry Shaheen went 4-2 and finished third. Will was 10-2. When our two teams went head to head it was probably the largest crowd of people watching a match we have had. A big thanks to Michael Glapion, Kaitlyn Hall, the Shaheens, Golders, and Juelkes for assisting with set up and clean up. Also thanks to Michael, the Galbraiths, and Samantha Milewski for refereeing.
Regular practices all this week.
The
21st and 22nd is JOs at Research Triangle Charter School near Durham.
Saturday is for the junior events and Sunday is for the cadet events.
If you qualify for the junior event and are young enough to be a cadet
you automatically are qualified for the cadet. The JOs are in Cleveland
over the President’s day weekend in February. Even for those of you do
not intend
to go to the JOs, these are good events in which to participate. You do
need to be signed up on askfred by the 20th or the fees double. Samantha Milewski, Oliver Galbraith, and Reaghan Juelke are our
only fencers I see signed up.
