Dashel Hutson upset the #1 ranked fencer in the quarterfinals to win bronze in Y12 men’s epee. Matthias Leuprecht went into the direct elimination round having only lost once in pools and earned a bronze after losing to eventual gold medallist William Kinney in the semi-finals of senior men’s sabre. Danielle Burghgraef came way with a bronze medal in senior women’s sabre after losing a close match in the semi-finals. DJ Holtz just missed a medal in Y14 men’s epee after a very close loss in the quarterfinals by a score of 15-14, while Deserae Ball also had a very close match in Y14 women’s epee, losing 15-13.
