Aberystwyth Women’s Team, Volume III; “Can you keep it down please”
Third match and it was time to welcome the lovely Southampton women’s team to this glorious town. Fortunately Southampton required a lunch break before we got on with the important things, leaving us enough time to carefully mark out the pistes and move any plants around the Dance Hall accordingly. First off was Sabre, with Nat, Nic and Izzie keeping close on Southampton’s heels to finish on a loss of 45-32. In Foil Olivia, Izzie, Jordana and myself gave a fair fight and lost only at 45-33. Closing on Epee Olivia, Izzie, Jordana and myself had a very tense match remaining almost always at even points and managed to finish on a win of 45-42! This weeks ‘man of the match’ undoubtedly goes to Izzie, for gaining an outstanding 13 points in a single Foil bout as well as gaining the last 7 points on the closing Epee bout to bring home the first weapon win of the season!
