Dynamo the First World Team Cadet

February 23, 2020

On February 14, 2020 Simon Kushkov secured his spot on the World Cadet National Team at the Junior Olympics in Columbus Ohio when he captured a bronze medal. The four day tournament drew more than 2,300 fencers from 44 states and broke the record for the largest edition of the competition in the history of the event.

The bronze at the Junior Olympics is the most recent success in an epic season for Kushkov, a sophomore ranked No. 2 in the nation in his age group in saber fencing. He's traveled both the country and the world this past year racking up a variety of wins that culminated in the national honor.

In addition to a gold in the Cadet World Cup, Godollo, Hungary (Team) and bronze in Cadet World Cup in Sofia, Bulgaria Simon has brought home 7 national and international medals in U17 age category. Also competing in U20 he placed 9th in the 2019 July Challenge Cup and 14th in the 2020 February Junior World Cup (Germany).

Simon and the two other athletes named to World Cadet Saber Team USA will have the opportunity to fence at the 2020 Junior and Cadet World Championships this fall.
