U.S. Women's Fencing Team Wins First-Ever Olympic Gold in Team Foil, Defeats Italy
Aug 1, 2024, 07:47 PM
The U.S. women's fencing team made history by winning their first-ever gold medal in the team foil event at the 2024 Paris Olympics. The team, consisting of Lauren Scruggs, Lee Kiefer, Jacqueline Dubrovich, and Philly native Maia Mei Weintraub, defeated top-ranked Italy to secure the victory. This achievement marks the first time the U.S. has won two gold medals in fencing at the same Olympics. The win is particularly significant as it is the first gold for the U.S. in any team fencing event, with previous records showing three silver and nine bronze medals in over 80 team events since 1904. The historic foil event took place at 2:30 pm ET, and fans could watch the competition on E! Entertainment and Peacock.
