The results of the Iowa Caucus Epee Tournament are in, and we were on news channels 5 (ABC) and 13 (WHO)!
Channel 5’s coverage:
Channel 13 mentioned us in their “Caucus Fever” story:
We fenced two round-robin pools of 5-point matches, with each fencer representing a different, randomly-drawn candidate in each round, and then combined the results for the overall placings:
- 1) Trump
- 2) Fiorina
- 3) Clinton
- 4) Christie (tie)
- 4) Santorum (tie)
- 6) Carson
- 7) Rubio
- 8) Paul
- 9) Kasich
- 10) Cruz
- 11) Bush
- 12) O’Malley
- 13) Sanders
- 14) Huckabee
Each fencer donned whatever gear the campaigns that had offices in town gave us (we printed out labels for the candidates who either didn’t have a campaign office here or we were unable to get anything from). We had a few fencers from other clubs join us, and we had such a good time that we’re thinking of doing another political-themed tournament for the presidential election!
