2nd Fencing Tournament of the Year!!!

Noah had a tournament yesterday up at Weber State and he did so good.  How it works is that they get put into pools and have to fence everyone in their pool, and then depending on how many points are awarded they then go into brackets.  Noah happened to meet up with the kid that he fenced in the finals last tournament in the semi finals and this time he was beaten.  Therefore was awarded the Bronze Medal.  He did such a good job and we are so proud of him, it was up at Weber State and so we had to leave the house at 7:00 am to get there in time, I think that he was feeling a little sluggish from having to get up so early.  I also made Noah fence in the Y10 group and he didn't really like it.  The kids are a lot taller and bigger and older and plus we had to be there all day which Noah was really mad about.  I told him that I will not make him do it again but that he needed to have the experience of fencing the older kids every once in a while.  Mom's are so mean.
