Another SJU fencer, another medal......

The quality of our fencing program goes (at least) back to my student days in the 60's. Still it seems to be a well kept secret. Interesting!

I shared a basement apartment with a fencer one semester off Union Turnpike. Any fencers here from 70-72?

I seem to remember a fencer from that timeframe that was about 6'8". Team was considered pretty good in the day.

My roomie was about 6'1 and of Polish background. His specialty was the "thrust" given the number of times I had to leave the apartment for 2 hours.
