I thought this team (now #7) deserved some love after upsetting then #2 Notre Dame this weekend. They went 11-1 at the Northwestern Duals, including wins over #2 Notre Dame, #14 Stanford, #13 Ohio State. Only loss was to the host, #8 Northwestern.
Interestingly, though Cornell is now #7 in the country, there are three Ivy teams ahead of them (#1 Columbia, #3 Harvard, #5 Penn.) Yale is at #8, Princeton at #9, Brown at #15.
Impressive so far for the Big Red fencers. Let's go Red and...uh, I really know nothing about fencing, so I will throw this out there--en garde!

Very cool! We have at least one semi-regular poster who is a fencing expert.

As long as this isn’t used an an excuse / distraction for the football team sucking for 50 years, go Cornell fencing!

We don't need an excuse.

Rough day at the Ivy League Championship as #4 Cornell goes 0-4 with losses to #3 Harvard, #1 Columbia, #11 Princeton, #9 Yale. Big surprise is Princeton, who also upset Harvard and Columbia and now sits in first place.
Presumably tomorrow's opponents are only #18 Brown and #6 Penn as Dartmouth does not have a team.

Today's results--win over Brown, loss to Penn. Finish sixth at the Ivy League championship. Colubmia shares the title with Princeton and Penn.
Next on March 10 is Northeastern regionals in Brooklyn; Cornell will send 12 fencers.
