Columbus, OH (Dec 9, 2021) — After a long day of bouts, Sabrina Fang emerged triumphant.
The foil fencer won silver in Cadet Women’s Foil at the December North American Cup.
Fang, who works with Coach Slava at Tim Morehouse Fencing Club Port Chester, left pools in 13th place having won five of her six bouts. She breezed through her direct elimination rounds until she reached the final. Facing another fencer who also represents Canada, Yunjia Zhang, Fang was leading through much of the bout. After a medical break, Zhang returned to sweep the last points, winning 15 to 13.
Congratulations Sabrina and Slava!
