NEW
YORK, April 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Peter
Westbrook Foundation is thrilled to announce a momentous milestone
in the journey of one of its brightest stars, Lauren Scruggs. In an awe-inspiring display of
skill and determination, Lauren has officially qualified for the
Women's Foil individual and team competitions at the upcoming 2024

first individual senior medal, a bronze. This victory not only
marks a pivotal moment in her fencing career but also paves her way
to the grand stage of the Olympics this summer. We couldn't be more
excited to see her shine in Paris.
Peter Westbrook, an Olympic
medalist and the founder of the Peter Westbrook Foundation, praised
Lauren's achievements, stating, "Lauren's dedication to her craft
and her unwavering commitment to excellence exemplify the values we
strive to instill in all our athletes at the Peter Westbrook
Foundation. Her journey from our club to the Olympic Games is a
testament to her talent and perseverance, and we couldn't be
prouder of her achievements."
The support system around Lauren, including her coach
Sean McClain and a close-knit group
of teammates and family, has been instrumental in her journey.
Their unwavering belief and encouragement have played a crucial
role in her reaching this pinnacle of sporting achievement.
As Lauren prepares to represent not just the Peter Westbrook
Foundation, but also her country on the global stage, we extend an
invitation to the fencing community and all sports enthusiasts to
join us in celebrating this extraordinary achievement. Let's show
our support all the way to Paris!
