King of Prussia, PA (Jan 15 - 16, 2022) — Tim Morehouse fencers Brynnley McKee and William Gerrish struck gold at the Morris Cup RYC/RJCC last weekend.
McKee pulled off an almost impossible feat — she was awarded an E22 rating on Saturday with her gold in Cadet Women’s Saber. And on Sunday, she earned bronze in Junior Women’s Saber and a D22 rating. She also took sixth place in Y-14 Women’s Saber.
Gerrish emerged from pools in fifth place, but handily won all of his direct elimination bouts to go directly to gold. It is his first gold medal.
Other fencers with excellent results included foilist Zizi Dai who won bronze (Y-12 WF) and silver (Y-14 WF) along with her D22 rating, Jonah Lee who took seventh in both Junior Men’s Foil and Cadet Men’s Foil, and the bronze medalists in Y-10 Women’s Foil, Savannah Li and Amabel Wang.
Congratulations fencers!
