Aksamit joins fellow fencing alum Miles Chamley-Watson, who won bronze in the men’s team foil on Friday, as Nittany Lions who have reached the podium during these Olympic Games. The three-time All-American (2009, 2011-12) was pressed into action after initially being an alternate, giving Penn State 12 active Olympians — the most in the Big Ten and sixth among all colleges represented on Team USA. In total, a record 25 former Nittany Lions are on U.S. rosters in Rio. Aksamit finished her outstanding Penn State career with two team National Championships and a degree in biology.

She tallied five points in her lone bout Saturday against the Italians before Russia took home gold with a 45-30 victory over Ukraine. Aksamit’s saber teammates included Mariel Zagunis, Dagmara Wozniak, and Ibtihaj Muhammad — the first American to wear a hijab during Olympic competition. The New York City-born, Matawan, N.J., native is the first female Penn State fencer to win an Olympic medal for the U.S. and the 31st overall Nittany Lion to accomplish the feat.
