Brandeis women's foil won their second-straight title, edging Dartmouth, 35-34. The Judge women's epee and sabre squads both came in fifth overall with 27 points apiece.

Senior Vikki Nunley (Lebanon, N.J./Voorhees) had the top finish for the women, placing fourth in the foil. Nunley went 5-0 in the semifinal pool and earned the second seed, but was just 2-3 in the finals. In women's epee, sophomore Gwendolyn Mowell (Wyckoff, N.J./Indian Hills) placed sixth overall, while rookie Nina Sayles (Mamaroneck, N.Y./Loomis Chafee) was 10th in women's sabre action.
