Fencers prepare for next week's New England Championships

|

The weekend after Winter Carnival, the Dartmouth men's and women's fencing team will compete in the New England Championships. Men's Co-Captain Matt Richardson '97 is guardedly optimistic about the men's team's chances, saying that there is a "really good" chance that they will finish amongst the top three, and possibly win. Women's Captain Bethany Marston '97 also predicts an improved performance this year, as the women's team, "will fence a full team this year." Last year only two women competed.
