...continued to be a high point for the squad, as senior Teddy Sherrill took bronze in the meet, and sophomore Karl Harmenberg finished eighth out of 34. The Crimson was the only squad to notch three top-10 epee finishes. “Today I started out feeling pretty sick, so I wasn’t sure how it was going to go,” Stallings said. “[In the final round] I felt surprisingly in control of the other seven fencers, because I’d had trouble with a couple of those fencers from...
