On the ground in Milwaukee

We are in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for the next few days for the North American Cup event here. I am coaching, with chaperonage and assistance from Cristina Ford. Competing are:

Emma Brewer-Wallin, Y14 women’s foil and Y14 women’s epee
Isabel Ford: Cadet (U17) women’s epee and Junior (U20) women’s epee
Jared Beilby: Junior (U20) men’s epee

Jared competes tomorrow morning, with a 7:00 a.m. check-in time.

He’ll have lots of support from all of us, and he will need it, as it is a tough field.
