Orlando, FL (Oct 26-29, 2023) — Tim Morehouse foil fencers put it all out there and were rewarded with two medals.

In addition, many of the fencers made the top-64, top-32 or top-16 in each event at the North American Cup.

Nickolas Rusadze prevailed in Cadet Men’s Foil, taking the gold medal. In Cadet Women’s Foil, Iris Yang persevered to win the bronze medal.

The October North American Cup, or NAC, is the first national competition in the 2023-2024 season. Earning national points puts fencers in contention for the Junior Olympics and junior national teams that can compete internationally.
