The last weekend of March, Malakai, Tristan, Chi Chi, Kalina, and Sarah fenced at the Fencing Center of Chicago’s ROC/RYC tournament! Malakai did a good job staying focused in Division 3 (D & Under), taking home the 3rd place medal and earning his E26 rating, and Chi Chi overcame some nerves from not having done a tournament in a while – she even decided to fence foil just for fun! Tristan fenced D1A for the first time and earned his C26 by finishing 5th in JR Men’s Epee. Kalina continued to be consistently successful in her events, and Sarah qualified for D1A at summer nationals. Pretty good weekend for RDF overall! Here’s the quick summary:

D3 ME: Malakai – 3rd (tie) & E26!
D1A WE: Kalina – 1st, Sarah – 6th, Chi Chi – 17th
JR ME: Tristan – 5th & C26!
D2 WE: Chi Chi – 12th
D1A ME: Tristan – 36th
D1A WF: Chi Chi – 17th (tie)
