1, gg Coach Kirmss expected to equal or surpass last season's 8-2 record when the Stevens fencing squad opened its season on Dec. 10 against Pace. The largely veteran team most likely will challenge Temple again for the M.A.C. championship. Stevens will be counting on 13 lettermen and a small but fine corps of sophomores to carry the team through the season. In sabre the team will be led by co-captain Joe Pigott. Pigott was 17-9 in individual bouts last season in addition to being named to the All-Conference team. His fencing experience was also expanded by his participation in the N.C.A.A. championships last season. Juniors Cecil Kingsley and Bruce Lutz will back up Pigott. Kingsley was 12-9 last winter and Lutz finished with a record of 12-8. Epee seems to be as strong as sabre with senior co-captain John Royal appearing to be the mainstay of this weapon. Royal participated in the N.C.A.A. tournament as a sophomore and had a 14-9 record last year. Senior Frank Coulter expects to improve on his 14-5 performance of last year. Coulter was also named to the All-Conference team last season. Backing up Royal and Coulter will be junior Jeff Spahn who came on strong last season as a sophomore. Foil, a weapon which might prove to be a relative weak point, will be led by juniors Alan Wells and Herman Kunis. Senior John Lynch who looked exceptionally strong at the M.A.C. tournament last year while gaining all Conference honors 12nd teamj will be fighting Wells and Kunis for the top spot in this weapon. ,,.., . -.V wif Q4 ...Y 7,7 .
