The fencing team will rate as a slight favorite over Boston University and M.I.T. when it opposes them in a triangular meet tonight at 7:30 p.m. in the IAB.
When the varsity met B.U. in the early part of the season, the Crimson won, 15 to 12. The fencers also topped M.I.T. in a practice match held before vacation.
While the sabre and foil teams are favored to win by narrow margins, the key to victory rests with the epee squad, which has not come up to preseason expectations.
