- Sports
The sport of parafencing has been equated to a game of physical chess. And Shelby Jensen would know. The Move United Elite Team member has been ranked #1 in saber and #2 in epee and foil in the United States. When not competing for Team USA at the international level, she practices and competes with her local program in Salt Lake City, the Utah Swords Academy Fencing Club. A sophomore in college, she has her sights set on competing at the next three Paralympic Games.
