CAPITAL graduate Marta Lasota and CAPITAL fencers Honor Johnson and Amit Hanadari-Levy were all business, and then all smiles at their results, at this month’s US Fencing Association’s North American Cup in Columbus, Ohio. With the support of her coach at Harvard, Peter Brand, and coached by Dariusz, Marta took 7th in the Junior event (ages 20 and under). Her clubmates Amit and Honor earned spots in the top 16 out of a field of nearly 150 fencers. Brava! Brava ladies!

Congratulations to Marta Lasota and Adam Green who will be leaving for Harvard University and University of Pennsylvania this fall! Thanks to their years of dedicated work and hard training, they not only have achieved fantastic results in our sport, but were each recruited to two of the best schools in America.
Marta and Adam are great examples of what we can achieve with the right approach!
Great job and we'll miss you both!

Sixteen Capital fencers attended this year’s Cherry Blossom Open, held at the U of MD in College Park, MD over the April 16 & 17th weekend. This strong local tournament draws fencers from up and down the east coast with our fencers taking first place in both the Mixed and the Women’s events! This tournament was a great opportunity for our fencers of all ages to compete, learn, and grow as a team. Congratulations to all our medalists, and the continued success and growth of our fencers! Let’s go CAPITAL!
