Coach's Corner
Head Coach Andy Tulleners said, "I thought the team fenced very well overall. All our fencers stepped up their game against Ohio State. Our strongest performers were the women's foil, who really picked up the pace against Ohio State. I am looking forward to our month off to trail and bring back lessons learned from this event, heading into our first home coemption in two years."
