Penn State Open: Men's Results

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – November 14, 2004 –Three-year All-American and NCAA Foil Champion of 2002 and 2003, Nonpatat Panchan (Bangkok, Thailand) of Penn State, placed first in the foil among 62 fencers today in the Penn State Garrett Open, defeating J. Jedrkowiak of the University of Notre Dame. C. Werk of Yale University placed third in this division.

“It’s kind of hard to be impressed with someone who won two national championships,” Coach Emmanuil Kaidanov of Penn State said jokingly. “He did well. He was creative and his ability was just above that of professionals.”

Fellow fencer, freshman Franz Boghicev (Dormaglu, Germany), had a close and strong performance in his final bout, though he was defeated by A. Crompton of Ohio State in the saber division. Fellow Ohio State fencer J. Rogers placed third in the saber.

Coach Kaidanov stated that he was impressed with the strong showing of Penn State in both saber and foil today. With five Penn State fencers in the top 12 of the saber division and six in the top 20 for foil, the men’s fencing team performed relatively well considering their competition.

“We have a lot of strong fencers. The field in saber is incredibly strong. Franz [Boghicev] did very well. Crompton is a very worthy opponent,” Kaidanov said.

In the epee division, Princeton University placed well with two of their fencers, S. Thompson and B. Solomon, placing first and second respectively. M. Petraszek of Wayne State University placed third and freshman Dennis Kraft (Ligonier, Pa.) placed 16th. Freshmen Tucker Matteson (Epsom, N.H.) and Arthur Urman (Maalot, Israel) placed 18th and 19th respectively.

This weekend marks the 32nd year of the Penn State Garrett Open. Men’s fencing teams from 20 universities including Penn State participated today from 8:30 a.m. – 6:30 p.m.
