Fencers Travel to MIT For NCAA Regional Championships

This weekend some of the fencers will head to MIT for the NCAA Northeast Regional Championships, where each squad will face off against about 40 other women from 19 schools. 10 fencers from each weapon will make it to the NCAA Championships held at Penn State on March 19-22; each school can send a maximum of two members per weapon.

Team and co-epee captain junior Katherine Thompson, junior Sallie Dietrich and junior epee co-captain Tasha Hall will represent the Red’s epee squad. All three qualified for the Championships last year, but Thompson could not attend since she would have been the team’s third delegate.
