Red Sox Patriots Celtics Bruins ... Fencing Striking gold Historic fencing win for Zagunis; bronze to Jacobson August 18, 2004 ATHENS There's a tradition in fencing that an Olympic champion gets thrown in the air by teammates. ADVERTISEMENT Not that the United States knows too much about that tradition, since it's been 100 years since they won a gold in the sport at the Games. But that all changed last night at the Helleniko Sports Center as members of the US men's team stormed the fencing strip and tossed 19-year-old Mariel Zagunis high into the air after she beat former world champion Tan Xue of China to win the first Olympic women's individual sabre competition. Zagunis not only won the first gold in a century, but she took home the first medal of any kind for the US fencers since the 1984 Los Angeles Games. And then to sweeten the pot, the bronze medal was picked off by 21-year-old Sada Jacobson, a Yale student who came into these Games ranked No. 1 in the world in the new discipline of individual sabre an event that emphasizes quickness both in offense and counterattack. As ecstatic as the US teams and fans were, yesterday's action did not go quite according to script. Most bets were on Jacobson to medal, and even to take the gold, but she ran into a tough match against Tan in the first round of the semifinals, and had to beat Romania's Catalina Gheorghitoaia in the bronze round something she accomplished with ease.

70. History Of Fencing Like fellow olympic sports archery and javelin, fencing has its roots in ancient Around 1200 BC, the Egyptians began the custom of fencing for sport, http://www.fencing101.com/intro.php

Introduction to Fencing The modern Olympic fencer trains for years, honing agility, quickness, and subtlety of movement. The sport has been described as "chess with muscles," suggesting that complicated strategy lies behind the thrusts and parries that punctuate a duel. Fencers of today employ a strange combination of archaic and modern customs; combatants still salute before a match and wear the traditional white uniforms and masks, but scoring is now determined by electronic padding worn by the combatants that registers when a hit takes place with flashing, color-coded lights. As suggested by the continuing power of the myths of swordfighting knights and adventurers, the fencing tradition is rich and storied. Like fellow Olympic sports archery and javelin, fencing has its roots in ancient combat. Around 1200 BC, the Egyptians began the custom of fencing for sport, as seen by images in decorative reliefs from that period depicting knobs on the end of weapons, earflaps and other protective garb. Sword craftsmanship evolved through the ages, from the short, wide swords favored by the Greeks and Romans to the heavy two-handed broadswords in vogue during the age of chivalry. After the advent of gunpowder and firearms, armor became obsolete and lighter swords gained popularity as the sidearm of choice for European officers and gentlemen. The Italians, Spanish, and French all claim parentage for modern fencing, but throughout Europe during the Renaissance the discipline took on the aura of high art, with masters refining and passing on to a select few their secret techniques. In the 18th century, treatises appeared in print setting forth the current system of rules and scoring, and prescribing the foil, a metal mask with eye slit, and protective jacket or vest as equipment for use. The rules were intended to simulate real combat while protecting the safety of the combatants. "Conventions" were subsequently adopted to limit the target area of the body and providing for a "right of way" for attacks.

The practice of fencing helps develop increased endurance and improved agility as well as analytic reasoning. Moreover, fencing practice teaches a healthy attitude toward competition and its fun. Fencing is one of the most complete sporting experiences because it utilizes so many different aspects of our physiology and psychology. There is the experience of being able to train your reflexes. This is a direct connection to the most basic of our so-called animal instincts. Young cats, wolves and other predators engage not only in play to train their skills, but are often subjected to training situations by their parents. The result is a set of reactions to stimuli which are done at a reaction level quicker than those controlled by conscious thought.
