| I will be there.
I thought about starting a hortatory thread on it here myself, but I wasn't sure how long it'd last before a moderator moved it to the Tournaments forum anyway...

| Last year was great, because of WORK scheduleds I will NOT be able to attend this year but I did want to let everyone kow it is worth the drive from Texas. Some of the HPF fencers are going again this year, even though I am staying here.
Hopefully a lot of people on here will check into tis great, fun event. |

| Dunno, only the foil and sabre results have been posted. Epee is running behind, as usual.

Congrats! | Thanks! It is such a fun event. The venue is good and the organizers run it better than almost any other regional event I've seen. Thanks to everybody involved in putting it together! |

| Yes, I concur. The Phoenix Cup was a great tournament. Lots of fun was had by many off and on the strip. |

The only current results I've found so far are posted on the AZDiv. Website at: http://www.azfencingdivision.net/res...enixCup06.html
I knew about nyacfencer doing so well from friends and family that attended the Cup.
Hopefully they'll get the rest up on FRED and PCup site soon. But I'm sure they are toasted...and the organizer, Pia Douglas, deserves a rest and lots of credit for working so hard to put on such a quality event.
How did Inq. do in the saber competition?

| Garrrr, nobody's posted the complete open epee results yet? Ah, and congrats! I wanted to make it out but didn't have the money, so spent the weekend in bed instead.  |

| I'm sure Inquartata was not totaly happy with his placement as it wasn't first. Something about being worn down by Will Becker III. :P Quote: |

| The fencers fromAmarillo that attended had a great time and learned a lot. I wish I could have gotten off work to be there
Pia always runs an excellent event!  Hat's off to here and her crew. |
