INDIANAPOLIS –– The NCAA Men’s and Women’s Fencing Committee has announced the field of 144 competitors who will participate in the 2018 National Collegiate Men’s and Women’s Fencing Championships.

The National Collegiate Men’s and Women’s Fencing Championships include individual events in each of the six weapons (men’s épée, men’s foil, men’s sabre, women’s épée, women’s foil and women’s sabre.

Fencers will compete in a round-robin format of five-touch bouts. After the round-robin, the top-four finishers in each weapon will fence in semifinal 15-touch bouts, with the winners fencing to determine first and second places, and the non-advancing fencers being awarded a tie for third place.
