SIX FENCERS QUALIFY TO GO TO

LONDON: CAT BOWKAMP, JOEY

BRINSON, RYAN ESTEP, GERARD

MORENO, MARIO RODRIGUEZ,

& GARY VAN DER WEGE

 

Congratulations to each and every one of you for all of your hard work and dedication. Also I would like to express my appreciation and admiration for all of the athletes who didn’t make the team, but contributed their time and effort and so much more!


This has been one of the few times when the process seemed too complicated and confusing for the majority of us to understand or follow.  Hopefully the fallout from this will be something  IWAS can learn from and do a better job in the future to support their athletes.

It has come to my attention that we have lost a dear friend to wheelchair fencing: Ken McGaha , passed away on Monday, April 30, 2012, at the age of 53.  On behalf of our community, I would like to express our deepest sympathy to Ken’s family and friends.
