Personal

Eli followed older brother Philip into fencing and took to the sport immediately. Eli, who says he is motivated by his coach and family, was the youngest member of the 2016 U.S. Olympic Fencing Team, earning a position on Team USA at just 19 years old and going on to make history as the first U.S. men's saber fencer to earn the 2017-18 Overall World Cup title after his silver medal finish at the Senior Worlds that season.
