today we have not one but two special guests whose journeys have been intertwined ever since their first lunges at Scarsdale Fencing Center.First up is Will Morrill — a former Cadet World Champion who’s now tearing it up on the collegiate scene with the Columbia Lions. Alongside him is Emilio Gonzalez, fresh off winning individual Cadet gold and helping Team USA claim team gold at this year’s Junior & Cadet World Championships in Wuxi, China.These two aren’t just teammates on the international stage; they’re training partners, friendly rivals, and close friends who’ve pushed each other to new heights since day one. Today, we’ll talk about what it felt like to stand atop the podium together in Wuxi, how Will is balancing Ivy League life with NCAA fencing, what’s next for Emilio as he starts weighing college options, and plenty of stories from their shared journey in sabre.We’ll alternate questions so each athlete gets the hot seat in turn — and wrap things up with a rapid-fire Quick Hits round where they’ll both answer the same five quirky questions. It’s going to be a mix of thoughtful reflection, friendly banter, and a few surprises along the way.
