The Epee squad dropped a tough 5-4 decision, with sophomore Shaina Morris winning two of her three bouts. Freshman Miya Herman led the Foil squad as she won all three of her bouts.
• Hopkins swept all three weapons to end the day with a win over William & Mary. Taylor, Vitale and Zhu combined to go 9-0 for the Sabre squad, which finished the day undefeated. Bisen won her three bouts to lead the Epee squad to a 6-3 win. Wolfe went undefeated (3-0) for the second time on the day to lead the Foil squad to an 8-1 win.
