Garina of Wayne State was defeated by Trzopek, placing second and Hohensee of Princeton placed third in the epee division.
Penn State men’s and women’s fencing coach, Emmanuil Kaidanov said of Trzopek’s bout, “The last draw was sweet, she had a strong performance.”
In the saber competition, Providenza of Notre Dame placed first with Byrne of Ohio State and Wright of Harvard placing second and third respectively. Laura Hillstrom (Gaithersburg, Md.) and Ashley Gin Fong Linker (Vernon Hills, Ill.) were the top Penn State fencers in this competition placing seventh and eighth respectively. Sophia Hiss (Oklahoma City, Okla.) of Penn State placed eleventh in this division.
Placing first in the foil competition today was Thompson of Ohio State and placing second was Leahy of Princeton. Cross of Havard who placed third and Kryczalo of Notre Dame who placed fourth defeated All-American junior, Annekathrin Donath (Tauber, Germany) of Penn State who placed fifth today.
Coach Kaidanov also said that, “The competition is getting stronger and stronger. The top places [for wins] are crowded with many good fencers. We have room for improvement.” Kaidanov felt that Notre Dame and Ohio State would be two tough competitors for Penn State to prepare for in the future.
