includes 18 female and 14 male students. Men's rowing includes 6 female and 81 male

The men's rowing isn't a surprise since most coxswains are women. As for the women's basketball team, I don't know if that includes team managers, or practice players. I have no idea why there are 14 men listed on the women's fencing team unless there isn't a men's fencing team and they practice every day against the women.

The men's fencing team was canceled a few years back, so maybe they have a bunch of men who practice with them?

Male students who want to fence do so with the women's team.  I have no idea if they compete as a club team, or perhaps as individuals in open matches.

Oh, good.  I was afraid I was getting old - glad it's only been a few years since the men's team was cancelled (right before my senior season....in 1993).
