Collegiate Fencing

Colligiate fencing has existed for a long time in the US. Some of the earliest programs came from the Ivy League schools, but now there are over a hundred fencing programs nation wide. Both clubs and varsity teams participate in the sport, however only the varsity teams may participate in the NCAA championship tournament. Due to the lack of schools in fencing, the teams actually fence inter-divison (teams from DIII fence teams from DI), and all divisions participate in the NCAA Championships. In 2005 Notre Dame edged out Ohio State to win the championship.
