Gettysburg College Fencing Club Competes Against Wilson College

By The Gettysburg College Fencing Club

Last Sunday, Gettysburg College’s Fencing Club went to its second competition against Wilson College. This competition also marked the Club’s first “away” game, with the Club members driving up to Wilson’s campus in order to compete. The Fencing Club managed to get a head start winning bouts in the beginning but struggled towards the end of the competition as Wilson College picked up the pace. Nonetheless, after some intense fencing, Gettysburg College managed to pull its second victory from Wilson College, winning 17 bouts out of 27. Special thanks go to all who went to the competition and represented both their school and their club:  Foil: Mike Behling, ‘13, Robin Miller, ’14, Johnny Santacruz, ’15; Epee: Peter D’Arpa, ’14, Darcy Merrill, ’14, Dominique Saunders, ’13; Sabre: Kenny Anderson, ‘14, club vice president-elect Grace Madland, ‘14, club president Anh Nguyen, ‘14. A big thank you also goes to the IRC for lending their van to the Club in support of the Club’s competition.
