When You Got It - You got It

Forget baseball, football, and soccer. Forget the chess club, the Lego club, and improv. My boy is into fencing – and he’s a natural. On January 23rd, Colby attended his first fencing tournament with no more than a dozen training sessions under his belt and ranked 5^th in a base pool of 32 for tournament match ups.

The coach has raved about him since the beginning of the year when he first joined the club. Colby’s reflexes are so insanely quick he is fencing against seasoned fencers and winning. So, for all the family who’ve criticized his gaming over the years – b o o y a h - but we love you anyway!

He won his first round 15-10 over Anthony:

And lost 15-12 in the second - to this crazy ninja fella.

He was complemented repeatedly by every judge he came across on his natural fencing skills (They couldn't believe it was his first tournament!), and placed 11^th overall for the tournament – which qualifies him for the CHAMPIONSHIPS! He’s so stoked!!
