• Hopkins followed with a win over William & Mary. Sophomore Jake Desman won his three bouts to lead the Sabre squad to a 7-2 win. Maddineni, junior Jake Joram and freshman Kyle Kennedy each won a pair of bouts as the Epee squad won 7-2. The Sabre squad did not lose a bout as Park, Gupta and Katwan combined for nine wins.
