 squad for the Pan American Qualifier has been announced.
 

As expected, Ruien Xiao (women’s epee) and Nicolas Zhang (men’s epee) will be our representatives. Both fencers are among the favourites in their weapon, but it’s all very close and I wouldn’t be surprised (just disappointed, which I guess is nothing new) if we don’t manage to win any quotas.

Mexico’s best chance for a quota, Nataly Michel (women’s fool), is out as she announced her pregnancy, and thus, a reserve will be forced to compete unprepared in less than a week.

So that’s pretty much a quota for  then. Don’t see any other fencers capable of challenging.

I think if Alely Hernandez had more time to prepare, she could do better; she’s still not defeated of course, but it will be not be an easy to be ready on the last minute to an all or nothing tournament.

It seems they will have pools of equal size, with 6-7 fencers each, so top seeds will have a bye going into the knock out draw.

Men's epee pool round is complete.

 

Received a bye to the elimination stage

 

Advanced to the elimination stage (in order)

 

 

The big winner is the athlete from Jamaica who finished undefeated in his pool. Of course the top seed will be a lot harder.
