The women kicked off the National Championship meet in Columbus, OH, on Thursday, completing their portion of the competition Friday. Rebeca Candescu, a junior from New Jersey, earned a bronze medal in Foil, and two other fencers landed top ten finishes in Sabre.
In the team competition, the women finished third, eight points behind Columbia/Barnard and 14 points behind Harvard. The men take to the strips Saturday and Sunday with that deficit to overcome in order to score what would be the program's fourth consecutive national championship, sixth in seven years, and 14th overall.
