Head Coach Brendan Doris-Pierce on his teams performance and how they can continue to improve...
"The team fenced incredibly hard today, and each squad had their moments of brilliance. We need to focus more on consistency and going round by round as we go into our next competition this weekend. The atmosphere in Connell was electric! The students provided a tremendous atmosphere of support for our fencing team, and we're looking forward to them showing up and showing out again at our next home meet in January and again at ACC's in February!".

Up Next...
BC will head to Brandeis in Waltham this weekend for the first of two Northeast Fencing Conferences.
