🤺This is fencing community at its very best ❤️
What a proud moment: Two scholarships for two sisters!
For international fencing families, there is often a home club and another club that becomes a home away from home. Last year, we were fortunate to welcome Itzayana and Valentina to train with us whenever they visited.
What began through fencing grew into friendship, and friendship into trust. When athletes, coaches, teammates, and families truly connect, that trust creates opportunities and opens doors.
Trusted individuals can be recommended, communities can come together, and opportunities can be created.
Congratulations, Itzayana and Valentina! We are incredibly proud of you and know you will go on to do great things.
Go make your mark and Goodluck on the NCAA stage UIW Fencing — we’ll be cheering for both of you! 🤺
