| US Men's Foil Team to fence for Bronze
The US Men's foil team upset Gerrmany (Good call Eric!) then lost badly to China. They will face Russia for the Bronze.

| Updated: Men's Foil Team on CNBC
First, read this entertaining story from Reuters: US Men's Fencing came, saw...Conga'd
I have just received word that CNBC will be broadcasting the Men's Foil Bronze Medal bout. No details yet. We can assume that it will be a replay as with women's and men's saber, and probably not the entire match either.
But it's still something! UPDATE
CNBC will broadcast condensed edits of the Men's Foil Team Gold and Bronze medal matches at 4PM EST.
More great exposure for US Fencing!

| Heads up -- the RAISport broadcast just started, a little way into the match.
Currently, it's 11-11, Dupree vs. Poz -- am I right that that's the same Poz? And when was the last time someone fenced two weapons in the same Games?
(If you've been wondering where we're getting the Italian online coverage, you can find the details here) | |

| Not the same but not sure if they are related.
GC, Can you please update the score every so often? I currently do not have access to fast connection.
Thanks!

18-15 US. It was 15-13 RUS after Dupree vs. the Other Poz, but Tiomkin has gone on a nice run vs. Ganeev.
18-18. I missed a few.
19-18 US
19-19
A phone call I had to take, and it's 23-22 US, Kellner fencing Poz. And, sadly, I have to leave to go in to work. Is anyone else watching who can update?

| I agree with Kellner in the slow motion replay. However, refeering is live.

| Qatet, Thank you for the running score. At least it wasn't another 45 - 44 heart breaker. Good effort by the US. | |
