there would be a couple of Olympic fencing team
members competing with Medler.
If that was not enough to prepare him for the
Junior Olympics, Medler also fenced the 1979 and
1981 Junior Olympic winners in his age division in
tournaments in Portland. Medler will have the

eomphrtn about mj mmrthodox tftyii,”
opportunity to face them again in Los Angeles.
Having already won the title once, he is automa
tically qualified for the 1982 Junior Olympics.
"Those two are very good,” Medler says.
“The ’79 winner is from Portland and is still under
twenty. Both of them have beaten me, but I
haven’t fenced either (of them) recently," he says.
The next part of the journey — the qualifying
tournament — almost didn’t materialize for Me
dler.
"I didn’t even know about the Junior Olym
pics, or even the qualifying tournament until a
couple of weeks before the tournament was to
start (Dec 27), but I checked it out in time and I
qualified to go "
Indeed he did, as he came away with the
Oregon State AAU Junior Championship in the
under 20 division.
Now that Medler has qualified to go, another
hurdle looms on the horizon before he actually
gets to Los Angeles — money As a club sport
operating independently from the athletic depart
ment, fencing has to raise roughly $400-500 on its
own to send Medler to Los Angeles, and more if
fencing members want Campbell to go with Me
dler. Fundraising in the form of fencing tour
naments, including a Team Challenge Foil event
slated for Jan. 30, is how the money is planned to
be raised.
"I think Mike has a good shot at being a
finalist," said Campbell, "if he is on, he could win
it.”
If Medler does win it, he will have to be
satisfied with that, as he does not have enough
points over a 2-year period to go to Argentina as a
member of the National Junior Olympic team. The
top three point getters over the last two years are
able to make the trip. The reason behind Medler’s
not having earned enough points is that he did not
compete his freshmen year and is thus ineligible
for the team
"Mike is still technically primitive, and still has
to pay his dues, but he does have a lot of talent,”
Campbell says
