UNC prepares for Haverford
By Mike Ehrlich and Sam Perkins | January 19The fencing team opened this year's schedule with a trial-by-fire. Within the first three competitions, the Tar Heels stood toe-to-toe with some of the nation's best, including an NYU Dual Meet that featured five perennial top 15 programs. Despite the tough start to the year, North Carolina looks to have a promising young squad that will continue to develop as the year progresses. On Saturday, the Tar Heels travel to Philadelphia to compete in the Haverford Duals, where they hope to improve their record and build toward the postseason.
