Our very own Mariel Zagunis has been named one of the top-25 Sexiest athletes to watch in 2012 by http://www.bleacherreport.com coming in at #23! Congrats!

These lists are always pretty fun and good/different press.

From the article:

How is Mariel Zagunis still a secret? How has no one heard of her yet?

Mariel is a fencing beast. She does not know how to lose at the Olympics, as she has won two gold medals over the past two Olympic games in the Individual Sabre category of fencing.

Cool Fencing Video of the Day: USA Vs. The World Promo Video for the FIE Congress

I’ll be competing this Sunday Dec. 4 in Philadelphia at the FIE Congress in an exhibition match pitting the top world fencer’s versus the top US Fencers.

The match is in conjunction with the FIE congress which starts on Friday and involves the heads of almost every fencing federation in the world meeting to discuss all things fencing related.

The tournament is followed by a Gala ball.   I don’t think spectators can actually attend the match, but you can watch it streaming at: http://www.facebook.com/SwordSportPR?ref=ts&sk=app_222219647807785

I’ll also be sending some updates from the Congress.  I’m very curious about attending the conference.
