On guard! Shagolsem Jayanta Singh - Gold at South Asian Fencing Championship
The Hindu | V. V. Subrahmanyam | April 25, 2012
By winning a gold in the epee individual category of the South Asian Fencing Championship, Shagolsem Jayanta Singh has proved that he is here to stay.
He moves around with so much energy and exuberance that it's hard to miss him. Manipur fencer Shagolsem Jayanta Singh is making waves in the sport he chose ahead of football. Jayanta even played in a local football league in his State.
The 26-year-old felt that his future lay not in a team sport but in an individual discipline. That was when he decided to take up fencing in view of its popularity in the North-Eastern Region.
And, not surprisingly, Jayanta has already made a mark for himself at both the international and the national levels—winning a silver in the Commonwealth Championship and gold in the Senior Nationals. The latest gold in epee individual category in the second South Asian fencing championship in Hyderabad was just another reminder that he means business.
