Fencing what ' s the first thing that pops into your head when you say fencing? Errol Flynn swashbuckling across the deck of a ship? Those old Wilkinson bonded blades commercials? Did you ever really think it was an actual sport? Probably not, but State actually does field a men and women ' s fencing team. Under first year coach Trish Mullins the teams put together 10-8 and 10-4 records, respectively. And while the season had high and low points for the Wolfpack, it was out for blood literally — against arch-rival North Carolina. Sorry, there were no Flynn dramatics just simple cut-and-dry duals. In an epee match between State ' s Eric Newdale and North Carolina ' s Larry Turner, Newdale attacked and snapped his blade. The force behind the attack carried the blade. through Turner ' s uniform, slicing open his chest. During a foil bout of that same match, the Tar Heels ' Emil Rosabe and the Wolfpack ' s James Pak had a little confrontation. Rosabe, bringing his non-weapon hand was caught by Pak ' s attack ripping open Rosabe ' s hand above the thumb and first finger. In the end though it was North Carolina that prevailed with the match. Oh well, that ' s fencing. Touche. 148/Sports
