Eli fencers felled by league foes
The Yale men’s and women’s fencing teams saw impressive individual performances in a disappointing day for both squads at the Ivy North Competition Sunday.
The men finished the day with a 1-2 mark, defeating Brown but falling to Penn and Harvard, teams ranked Nos. 6 and 7, respectively, in the United States Fencing Coaching Association college poll. Michael Pearce ’09, an epeeist, and John Gurrieri ’10, a foilist, led the way for the Bulldogs, both posting 8-1 records.
