HAVERFORD, Pa. - The Haverford College women's fencing team dominated visiting Drew University and Lafayette College on Saturday in the Fords' initial home meet of the season. Haverford registered decisive wins in all weapon squads.

Seniors Katie Elbert, Shannon Horn and Anjali Baliga, along with sophomore epeeist Juliana Petersen, were all undefeated on the day. Freshmen Diana Schoder, Sofia Tieze and Alexis Auer each went 3-1 while sophomores Elisabeth Hawthorne in sabre, and Leila Braun in foil, each only dropped one bout while winning five and four bouts, respectively.
