On Sunday 28th, the State Foil Championships are being held with several medal favourites in both the Mens and Womens events competing for UTS.

Frank who was seeded number 25 going into the competition drew number 7 seed Hanxiong Wu from China. Frank started well getting the first hit and being down only 2 hits 9-7 at the first break. Some missed opportunities with off target and non-landing hits by Frank led the final bout score to be 15-8 in Wu’s favour.

Frank’s final standing was 27th at his first Olympics Games.
