NEWARK, N.J. – The Haverford College men's fencing team put together another strong weekend of conference competition as the Fords went 3-1 during the MACFA "B" vs. "C" bouts over the weekend. The Fords rolled to victories over Army, Stevens, and Yeshiva, while just being edged out by host NJIT.

Epee won each of its four weapon squad matchups as senior captain Eric Gardner went 11-1 on the day. However, epee also showcased its depth as each of the Fords' epeeists recorded winning records with Kadan Lottick going 7-2, Jake Bassinder finishing at 7-3, and Ian Wheeler posting a 4-1 mark.

Haverford's sabrists matched their epee teammates with 29 victories against just seven defeats over the four rounds of fencing action. Gabriel Braun led the sabre squad with a 9-1 record, while John Hare was 9-2. David Parker notched an impressive 7-3 record, while Henry Li was 4-1 on the afternoon. The sabre team finished the day strong with back-to-back 9-0 blankings of Stevens and Yeshiva.
