Grace F. ’29 Becomes Youngest A-rating USA Fencer of Women’s Foil in the United States

Grace F. ’29 became the youngest A-rated USA fencer of women’s foil in the United States after earning a gold medal at the USA Fencing Regional Junior and Cadet Circuit on December 15. 

Fencers earn certain ratings (A through E), depending on the size and level of a tournament, along with the quality and size of the opponent pool. An A rating can only be earned with a combination of a substantial-size pool, a highly rated set of opponents, and a significant finishing position. An A ranking is the highest mark in USA fencing.

On December 6, Grace also had another impressive tournament, placing 6th in the Junior Women’s Foil event at the USA Fencing Super Junior and Cadet Circuit in Atlanta.

Congratulations, Grace, on these exciting accomplishments!

Go, Wildcats!
