Photo of the Day: Lee Kiefer '17 Gold Medalist


The former Fighting Irish star just won an Olympic Gold Medal -- the first ever for an American (man or woman) in Foil!

Lee's husband, Gerek Meinhardt '13 is currently ranked #2 in the world in Foil -- and he begins his Olympic journey tonight at 10:35 PM ET

OLYMPIC FUN FACT:  America has won only three Olympic Gold Medals in history in Fencing -- and all three have been won by former Notre Dame student-athletes!
