CHARLOTTE, N.C. (theACC.com) – Twenty-eight fencers from the Atlantic Coast Conference will compete in the 2025 NCAA Fencing Championships, which will be held from Thursday, March 20, through Sunday, March 23, at the Multi-Sport Facility in University Park, Pennsylvania.
The men will kick off the championship with round-robin bouts on Thursday followed by semifinals and finals on Friday, March 21. The women will follow with the same schedule on Saturday, March 22, and Sunday, March 23.
A live feed of semifinal and final bouts will be available at 1:30 p.m. ET on ESPN+. Semifinals and finals, along with other championships highlights, will air on ESPNU on Wednesday, April 9 at 8 p.m. ET.
Notre Dame joins Columbia as the lone schools to qualify 12 fencers for the championships (six men, six women), which includes the maximum number of two qualifiers in each of the six events. The Irish are the only team nationally to send 12 fencers to the NCAA Championships in each of the last 11 seasons. Notre Dame is aiming for its 10th national championship in program history (1994, 2003, 2005, 2011, 2017, 2018, 2021, 2022, 2023).
All five ACC programs will be represented at the championships. Stanford has seven qualifiers, while Duke and North Carolina each have four and Boston College has one.
The championships include individual events in each of six weapons (men’s épée, men’s foil, men’s sabre, women’s épée, women’s foil and women’s sabre).
Fencers will compete in a round-robin format of five-touch bouts. After round robin, the top-four finishers in each weapon will fence in semifinal 15-touch bouts, with winners fencing to determine first and second places, and non-advancing fencers being awarded a tie for third place.
An institution’s place finish in the championships will be based on points earned by each individual. A team will be awarded one point for each victory by its student-athletes during round-robin competition.
