A former mainstay of the national team and five current members grabbed the spotlight in the opening leg of the Philippine Fencing Association (PFA) Opens by topping their categories on Sunday, March 12 at the Philippine Sports Commission (PSC) Fencing Hall inside the PhilSports Complex (formerly ULTRA) in Pasig City.
Wilhelmina 'Bing' Lozada, a member of the silver medal winning women's foil squad during the 2021 Southeast Asian Games in Vietnam, placed first overall in women's individual foil.Motivated to prove her worth after missing a spot in the Philippine Team for this year's biennial meet in Cambodia following a fifth-placed finish in the PFA ranking last year, the 26-year-old Lozada bested 2021 SEA Games teammate Maxine Esteban with a nail-biting 15-14 win.
The 27-year-old Perez said that he too was driven to establish something after finishing fifth overall during last year's ranking when he missed two of the five legs of the PFA ranking due to conflict of schedules with his participation in international competitions.
