St. John's Fencers Ready To Make Their Mark In Beijing

August 06, 2008

With three weeks left before the school year begins, St. John's fencing head coach Yury Gelman and fencer Dagmara Wozniak, a rising-sophomore, will be making one last summer vacation stop before classes start -- Beijing, China.

Gelman and Wozniak, along with former Red Storm alumnus Keeth Smart, will represent the Red Storm and the United States as part of the U.S. Fencing team at the 2008 Olympic Games.

No stranger to the international stage, Gelman, head coach at St. John's since 1996, will be making his third appearance as Team USA's men's sabre coach after coaching the U.S. team at the Olympic Games in Sydney (2004) and Athens (2000).
