Hailey Cashman: Demonstrated exceptional skill with a Gold in Y10 Women’s Foil, Silver in Y12 Women’s Foil, and a Bronze in Cadet Women’s Foil. Notably, Hailey had a phenomenal tournament, receiving only 4 touches in the Y10 event, conquering challenging close bouts in the Y12 and Cadet categories, and earning an "E" 2023 national rating.
Harrison McMillian: Earned a well-deserved Bronze in Y12 Men’s Foil.
Levi Fergusson: Showed determination with a 7th place finish in Y12 Men’s Foil and one point away from top 4.
