Chestnut Hill, Mass. - Boston College Men's Fencing began the dual meet season this past weekend at the Brandeis University Invitational. The men went 1-3, earning a victory over Vassar College while dropping meets to MIT, St. John's and Yale.

The men's foil squad had an impressive day, going 3-1 in their portion of the dual meets. All three starters - junior John Shadrick, sophomore Sean Hickey and freshman Peter Lowe - were 9-3 for the day.

The team will return to action in January when they will host Brown, MIT and Brandeis in the Boston College Invitational. The Eagles welcome back a lineup strengthened by the return of upperclassmen from semesters abroad.
