Hillsdale College Fencing Team
The Hillsdale College Fencing Team encompasses both a men's and a women’s team. Each team is composed of 3-4 fencers, and based on club size and interest in a given season, multiple teams can be made for each gender. The fencing teams are open to anyone who is consistently attending fencing practices, even if they are new to the sport.

From the Archives
Fencing has been practiced at various times throughout Hillsdale's history as a class, a club sport, an intercollegiate sport, and a women's intramural sport. Most notably, we had a strong women's intercollegiate fencing program in the 1930s! Hillsdale College Fencing as it is now seeks to reawaken that tradition and honor it as we practice the sport of modern olympic fencing.
