ITHACA, N.Y. – This past weekend, the Cornell fencing program hosted its annual alumni, friends and parents fencing tournament and year-end banquet. The day's activities began at the Stifel Fencing Salle and featured four hours of fencing between alumni and the current Big Red team. Following the tournament, the participants gathered in the Hall of Fame Room to celebrate the season's accomplishments, outstanding seniors, great alumni and dedicated parents.
