Audrey Yi, a Senior in PCTI’s STEM Academy of Biomedical Life and Sciences, is January’s Athlete of the Month. A varsity fencing starter (foil), Audrey helped drive a standout year that included placing 12th in the state for Girls Foil, contributing to the Girls Fencing Team’s County Championship, and helping the Girls Foil Team earn second place in districts.
One of Audrey’s favorite memories during her time fencing for PCTI came at districts, when the entire squad, foil, sabre, and épée, bonded and supported one another throughout the day. The results were exciting, including a second-place overall finish and Audrey advancing to states, but what stood out most was the team-wide encouragement during challenging meets. She also credited her teammates—upperclassmen and underclassmen alike—along with her coaches and family for supporting her throughout the season.
Outside of school fencing, Audrey stays active through masters fencing and training with GFA Club Fencing, and she also participates in cross country and track & field. In addition, she serves as President of the World Language Honor Society, is involved in National Honor Society, FBLA, and HOSA, and is Co-Director of a nonprofit organization, Wayne Grounded. She’s also part of NJROTC as Head of Operations and participates in Color Guard and Drill Team.
Looking ahead, Audrey plans to pursue a pre-med track in college, with goals of medical school.
Congratulations, Audrey!
