NCAA Fencing Championships: Live Video
NCAA.com is posting live video of the 2011 Fencing Championships

The 2011 NCAA Fencing Championships kick off today with the first 4 rounds of the men’s competitions.  NCAA.com is offering live video streaming and Prise de Fer Fencing Club is hosting the live bout results.

Over the course of 4 days, 144 athletes will compete in the six weapon disciplines: Men’s and Women’s Foil, Epee, and Sabre.  Each fencer will fence 5 touch bouts against the other fencers in their weapon in a large pool format.  After the bouts are complete, the top 4 fencers will face off in semi-final and final 15 touch direct elimination bouts.

Each pool bout victory by a fencer earns one point for their school for scoring for the overall NCAA Championship Team.  The 15 touch elimination bouts will not count for the team championship.

Day 1 and 2 are the men’s events with the women’s events following on Saturday and Sunday.  College Fencing 360 is also providing coverage of the fencing championships.
