Fencer Jackie Dubrovich ’16CC took home gold in the women’s team foil event — helping the United States to secure its first-ever Olympic gold medal in a fencing team competition. Dubrovich, who fenced for the Lions at Columbia, also won team gold (and individual bronze) at the Pan American Championship earlier this year. Dubrovich was joined at the Paris games by épée fencer Anne Cebula ’20BC, rowers Charlotte Buck ’18CC and Alexander Hedge ’19CC, rhythmic gymnast Evita Griskenas ’24CC, and basketball player Maodo Lô ’16CC, who competed with Team Germany. Foil fencer and Columbia College junior Bogdan Hamilton also competed, representing Team Canada.
