The UNC women’s fencing team competed at the Duke Meet on Sunday, finishing with the same 1-4 record the men had on Saturday. In action at Card Gym in Durham, N.C., the Tar Heels defeated Brandeis 17-11 but fell to No. 2 Notre Dame, No. 9 Penn State, No. 10 Temple and host Duke.
“The women fenced well against Temple and had good chances to do better,” UNC coach Ron Miller said. “This was one of those weekends that when I look closely at all of the score sheets, I suspect I’ll see a very low win ratio in 5-4 bouts.
