What a great start to the season!

Our cadets and juniors headed down to Portland for the Fall RJCC. Everyone fenced really well, even against some pretty fierce competition. In the end, Ellie brought home a 5th place medal in Cadet Women's Saber. Devon and Andrew brought home hardware from the Cadet Men's Saber, placing 5th and 7th respectively.

Great job, everyone! We're looking forward to a great season!
