...sophomore epee Mare Irvings, Harvard's varsity fencing team came within a hair's breadth of defeating the nation's top ranked fencing team, New York University, Saturday in the IAB. Irvings' fencing in the number three epee spot, won all three of his bouts. Combined with captain Ron Winfield's sweep of his sabre bouts and a few other key wins, Harvard kept the outcome in doubt until the next to the last bout. The Crimson finally bowed...

The epee team, the weakest part of the squad in the first three meets, took on a new look against C.C.N.Y. John Reitz, fencing his first time in the number one spot, led the epee romp with three wins. But the most pleasant surprises came from Tetrayllay and sophomore Mickey Irvings who won five of their six bouts...
