About The Book:100 Years Of
Princeton Fencing provides a complete
chronicle of the history of Princeton fencing,
which will be marking its milestone 100th year
during the 2024-25 season. It traces the program's
evolution from a fledgling entity to a powerhouse
that has produced two NCAA Team Championships (and
three second-place finishes), a combined 30 Ivy
League titles (17 men's and 13 women's), 20
Olympians --- including a gold medalist among the
school-record seven Princetonians who represented
their countries at the recent 2024 Games in Paris
--- and 15 NCAA Individual champions. In addition
to detailing the exciting dual meets and thrilling
bouts, the author takes his readers "under the
hood" with a host of compelling personal stories
and fascinating vignettes that add a tremendous
amount of "color and flesh" to his description of
one of the most successful programs in the annals
of intercollegiate fencing.
