Then in 1981 Gerrard was shot in the chest during a robbery in his home. He spent the next 6 months in hospital and was paralyzed from his waist down.[2]Slowly Gerard got back into sports; first with wheelchair tennis, then off-road wheelchair racing in which he won national titles. In 1996 he began his return to fencing competing in sabre and foil and has since competed on four World Championship Teams and 4 Paralympic Teams (Sydney, Athens, Beijing and London).Noted Results[edit]National[edit]2012 US National Championships Foil & Saber – Silver Medalist \u2013 Virginia Beach, VA[1]2011 US National Champion Foil & Saber \u2013 Portland, OR2011 North American Cup Foil \u2013 Silver Medalist \u2013 Kansas City, MO2011 North American Cup Saber \u2013 Bronze Medalist \u2013 Kansas City, MO2010 US National Championships Foil – Bronze Medalist \u2013 Dallas, TX2010 US National Championships Saber – Silver Medalist \u2013 Dallas, TX2010 North American Cup Foil \u2013 Bronze Medalist \u2013 Cincinnati, OH2009 US National Champion Foil \u2013 Dallas, TX2009 US National Championships Saber – Silver Medalist \u2013 Dallas, TX2007 US National Championships Foil & Saber – Silver Medalist \u2013 Miami, FL2006 US National Champion Foil & Saber \u2013 Reno, NV2005 US National Championships Saber \u2013 Sacramento, CA2005 US National Championships Foil – Silver Medalist \u2013 Sacramento, CA2005 North American Cup \u2013 Foil \u2013 Bronze Medalist \u2013 Chattanooga, TN2005 North American Cup \u2013 Saber \u2013 Silver Medalist \u2013 Chattanooga, TN2004 North American Cup Foil – Bronze Medalist \u2013 Atlanta, GA2004 North American Cup Saber – Silver Medalist \u2013 Charlotte, NC2003 North American Cup \u2013 Gold Medalist \u2013 Palm Springs, CA2003 US National Championships – Saber – Silver Medalist \u2013 Austin, TX2002 US National Champion Saber \u2013 Orlando, FL2002 US National Championships Foil – Silver Medalist \u2013 Orlando, FL2001 US National Champion Saber \u2013 Sandy, UT2001 North American Cup Foil – Bronze Medalist \u2013 Louisville, KY2001 North American Cup Saber – Gold Medalist \u2013 Palm Springs, CA2000 US National Championships Foil Bronze Medalist \u2013 Austin, TX2000 US National Championships Saber – Silver Medalist \u2013 Austin, TX1999 North American Cup Saber \u2013 Silver Medalist \u2013 Cleveland, OH1999 North American Cup Foil \u2013 Bronze Medalist \u2013 Cleveland, OH1999 North American Cup Foil & \u00c9p\u00e9e – Bronze Medalist \u2013 Palm Springs, CAInternational[edit]2011 Pan American Zonal Championships Foil \u2013 Gold Medalist \u2013 S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil[1]2011 Pan American Zonal Championships Team Foil \u2013 Silver Medalist \u2013 S\u00e3o Paulo, Brazil2011 World Championships Saber \u2013 16th place \u2013 Catania, Italy2011 World Championships Foil \u2013 20th place \u2013 Catania, Italy2009 World Cup Foil \u2013 Bronze Medalist \u2013 Montreal, Canada[1]2008 Paralympic Games Saber \u2013 16th place \u2013 Beijing, China2008 Paralympic Games Foil \u2013 15th place \u2013 Beijing, China2007 World Cup Foil Team \u2013 Bronze Medalist \u2013 Montreal, Canada2006 World Championships Saber \u2013 16th place \u2013 Torino, Italy2006 World Championships Foil \u2013 11th place \u2013 Torino, Italy2006 World Cup Saber \u2013 Bronze Medalist, Montreal, Canada2005 World Cup Saber \u2013 9th place \u2013 Paris, France2005 World Cup Foil \u2013 10th place \u2013 Paris France2004 Paralympic Games Foil \u2013 10th place \u2013 Athens, Greece2004 Paralympic Games Saber \u2013 17th \u2013 Athens, Greece2003 World Cup Saber \u2013 Bronze Medalist – Seville, Spain2003 World Cup Saber \u2013 Bronze Medalist – Atlanta, GA2002 Pan American Zonal Championships Saber \u2013 Gold Medalist \u2013 Austin, TX2002 World Cup Foil \u2013 Bronze Medalist \u2013 Austin, TX2002 World Championships Saber \u2013 10th place \u2013 Budapest, Hungary2002 World Cup Saber \u2013 Bronze Medalist \u2013 Warsaw, Poland2000 Paralympic Games Saber \u2013 11th place \u2013 Sydney, Australia2000 Paralympic Games Foil \u2013 16th place \u2013 Sydney, Australia2000 Paralympic Games Team Saber \u2013 8th place \u2013 Sydney, Australia2000 World Cup Foil \u2013 9th place \u2013 Lonato, Italy2000 World Cup Saber \u2013 9th place \u2013 Lonato, Italy1999 World Cup Foil \u2013 9th place \u2013 Budapest, Hungary1999 World Cup Saber \u2013 13th place \u2013 Budapest, Hungary1999 World Cup Foil \u2013 11th place \u2013 Oviedo, Spain1999 World Cup Saber \u2013 8th place \u2013 Oviedo, Spain1999 World Cup Foil \u2013 Bronze Medalist \u2013 Montreal, Canada1999 World Cup Saber \u2013 Silver Medalist \u2013 Montreal, Canada1998 World Championships Foil \u2013 21st place \u2013 Euskirchen, Germany1998 World Championships Saber \u2013 12th place \u2013 Euskirchen, GermanyReferences[edit]External links[edit]  "},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki24\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki24\/gerard-moreno-fencer-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Gerard Moreno (fencer) – Wikipedia"}}]}]
