Centennial Sophomores Shine at

Home Tournament

 

Congratulations to the Centennial Fencing Club for their outstanding showing this weekend.   In addition to fine fencing performances by the Knights, the club hosted an excellent tournament for the Georgia High School Fencing League.

For the first time this season, the Knights men placed three fencers in the top 10 (in a field of 85 fencers). Knights highlights included an 8^th place finish by sophomore Daniel Sandfelder.   Sandfelder earned the first points of his career, qualifying him for the GHSFL individual tournament.   Fellow 10^th grader Nick Bray led the Knights men with a 6^th place finish.   Senior Simon Miller (10^th) scored his 4^th top ten result this season.    Joseph Dorfman (20^th) and Jermain Leon (23^rd) posted career best results, narrowly missing the top 16.

Sophomore Maggie Fritts (5^th place) earned her seventh top 10 finish of the season.  Fritts led all female fencers in the preliminary pools, going undefeated with an indicator of plus 18.   Freshman Sarah Harrison had another solid performance (22^nd) while Chloe Lecates (35^th) earned the best result of her career.

This tournament concluded the regular season for the Knights.   Next up is the individual Championship on February 20^th at Johns Creek High School.
