Senior foil fencer Trevor Filseth (Palo Alto, Calif. / Palo Alto) won all six of his bouts, while five others also had six wins. Fellow senior foilist Ian Quin (Ramsey, N.J./Ramsey) was 6-1, including a 3-0 mark in the loss to MIT. Sophomore Lucas Lin (Plano, Texas / Plano West) helped key the sabre squad's 9-0 win over Sacred Heart with a 3-0 record. Lin went 6-2 overall. The men's epee squad produced three fencers with 6-3 records, rookies Ben Rogak (E. Setauket, N.Y. / Ward-Melville) and Josh Shuster (Brooklyn, N.Y. / Staten Island Technical) and junior Garett Tordo (Framingham, Mass./Framingham).
