Due to the strong number of female candidates, CollegeFencing360.com is honoring three women as co-national fencers of the week (for the NCAA Regionsl weekend, March 7-8). There also is a second group of eight (honorable mention) – with all of these 11 of these fencers comprising the first NCAA Regional Honor Roll (as selected by CF360).
The complete weekly awards release will be posted on this site later today (via the Awards tab) – but for now, the 11 fencers being honored by CF360 for their Regional performances are listed below. Note that there were plenty of candidates to select from, with victory and indicator totals, plus strength of opponents, playing a role in the selections.
(Note that CF360 also plans to honor various fencers who rose to the occasion with clutch Regional performances while under pressure, due to their precarious seed location and the value that their results held for potential team success in the NCAA Championships):
(Harvard ... Women's Foil ... 5th-Yr. Sr. ... New York, New York)
(Columbia ... Women's Sabre ... Jr. ... Brookline, Massachusetts)
BECCA WARD
(Duke ... Women's Sabre ... Fr. ... Portland, Oregon)
