...Although the Crimson won the final bout, it was for naught as the squad fell, 14-13. In its first team competition of the season, the men’s foil was the only saving grace for Harvard, winning 5-4 in the matchup, with co-captain and junior Kai Itameri-Kinter and freshman Hao Meng each posting two victories. The foilists notched eight wins in each of the other two meets. The epee fencers couldn’t find that same rhythm. With a strong combination of senior Teddy Sherill and sophomores Billy Stallings and Karl Harmenberg, the squad...

...weapons’ squads did not perform poorly, either. Junior epee fencer Teddy Sherrill and senior foilist Enoch Woodhouse finished in the top 10 to earn All-American status. After battling knee problems all season, senior saber Dan Sachs pulled through in the end to place 15th, while sophomore Kai Itameri-Kinter matched his performance in the foil. Through its performances at the IFA, the Ivy League, and NCAAs, the Crimson showed this year that last season’s national title was no fluke.
