PHILADELPHIA - The Temple fencing team is set for its second collegiate competition of the season, with the Owls heading to State College, Pa. for the Penn State Open.
The Owls opened their slate with the Temple Open two weeks ago and had a solid performance. Zoe Turner had the Owls' best finish of the day, taking second in sabre. Epee's Cindy Long had the second-best finish for the team, with the freshman earning an eighth-place finish in her Cherry and White debut. Two other Owls finished in the top-15, as freshmen Eva Ventura (sabre) finished in 12th while Anna Novoseltseva (foil) finished in 13th.
Five fencers saw national competition last weekend the October North American Cup, with Turner's 40th-place finish once again leading the team and Naomi Ross's 44th-place finish leading the epeeists.
Competition at Penn State will begin at 8 a.m. as the foilists take the strip first, with epee beginning at 9:15 a.m. and sabre beginning at 12:30 p.m. This will be the lone November action for the Cherry and White, with the team getting a break until the Sacred Heart Invitational on Dec. 5.
