The 9-State Cup RYC/RJC, hosted by Tim Morehouse Fencing Club at our Chelsea Piers location in Stamford, Connecticut, was a major success—both for our fencers and for the event’s growing reputation as a premier regional tournament. This year, over 1,000 unique fencers participated, nearly doubling the 600 participants from our inaugural event 2 years ago. Our fencers delivered fantastic performances, with many podiums featuring multiple TMFC fencers and several athletes making their regional debuts. The tournament provided an excellent opportunity for us to bond as a community and also a chance to showcase our Connecticut location on a grand scale. We were also happy to shine a spotlight on our sport by broadcasting the entire event, which is still watchable on our YouTube channel. Moments from the competition will be edited into a half-hour special on NYC regional sports networks soon. Full medalist list below:
