And they were rewarded. There were gold medals for Gabriel McCarthy (Division II Men’s Saber) and Robert Wang (Cadet Men’s Saber). A silver for Brynnley McKee (Cadet Women’s Saber) and a bronze for Filip Dolegiewicz (Division I Men’s Saber). Shaun Kim made the medal stand for Division I Men’s Saber in eighth place.

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.
