It's been in every Olympics there has ever been in the modern age. There's fencing in every summer Olympics and it never gets televised. There's no fencer who is a household name. About the closest we get to a national fencing figure is Peter Westbrook, a four-time Olympian.

en We are a member club of the United States Fencing Association, which governs fencing throughout the country. That means we can hold tournaments and our members can go to tournaments.

en In America, when people dueled, they would use pistols. We didn't have fencing schools where gentlemen went to learn the sword. In Europe they had that, and those schools became the basis of the fencing clubs they still have today.

en We have no choice but to win on the road if we want to be an NCAA (tournament) team. If we don't win, we don't deserve to be an NCAA team. It's just as simple as that.

en Fencing has given me a lot. What I've tried to do is give some of that love of the sport and passion for fencing back to all of our fencers.
