NEWS!!! First Competition of year Results: John fenced very well at this weekend’s tournament!
First, in the Y14 Foil, he won 4 of the 5 pool bouts. Unfortunately, after placing out of the pools at 7th, John got stopped in the first DE round 15-11. It was tied for most of the time, then his opponent got up 12-11 with about 50 seconds left. Under time pressure, John went aggressive trying to even the score and walked into getting hit, which deepened the deficit and the desperation. So he finished 17th in a field of 33 fencers.
Second, in the Y12 Foil, he won 3 of the 5 pool bouts. Again, John got stopped in the first DE round by the fencer who went on to win 2nd. So he finished 11th out of 19 fencers.
Neither tournaments’ final result really reflected his total performance considering that he won 7 out of 10 pool bouts; he just had difficulty in the DE rounds. Furthermore, this year, he’s an 11-year old in the Y-12 and the Y-14 is a full age section up.

Y-10 & 12 Saber and Y-12 Epee Results from the Gardner Family: In the Y-10 Saber, there were 4 fencers (2 were veterans from San Diego). John scored 1 win in the pools to place 3rd into D.E.s, but then lost to #2 to finish as tied for third. However, the San Diego fencers hadn’t been to the previous tournaments in the league. The other fencer who was in contention against John for league points didn’t show, so John finished with the highest league points and won this season’s Southern California Youth Challenge Y-10 Saber Champion trophy based on cumulative points from first, second and third place finishes.
In the Y-12 Saber, there were 11 fencers. John won 2 of the pool bouts. This placed him as 6th into D.E.s. He then beat the 11th seed to make it to the table of 8. But then was paired against the #3 seed fencer, Tibbets. She got him for the first bout, but he got her in the second bout, forcing a third bout. After very active coaching, she got him 5-3 in that bout.
Wesley also medaled in his first tournament. So before long, we should have area clubs quite fearful of the Conejo name. He won 6 out his 8 pool bouts. This placed him 3rd going into D.E.s. He won the first round, but then was defeated by the fencer that went on to win first. So he finished 3rd.
