After all three men’s events were completed, and the team scores were tallied, Chaminade’s men’s fencing team was named State Champions, beating the second place high school by a score of 128-103.

In the women’s division, Dylan Sarish ’15 finished third in women’s epee, and Jessica Fint ’16 finished third in women’s saber, leading the Chaminade women’s team to an overall third place finish in the state.
