Penn soundly defeated the Crimson fencers in Philadelphia on Saturday, 16-11, to virtually squelch any hopes the team may have had for finishing high in the Ivy League.
Captain Jon Kolb was the only man to win all three of his matches. The other men in sabre, Paul Profeta and Bob Damus, had 0-3, 1-2 records for the day, respectively.
But Tom Musliner in foll and Rich Kolombatovich in epee each won two matches to strengthen the otherwise poor performance in both weapons. Dave Dooley in foil and Paul Mundie and Dave Redmond in epee won a bout each for the only other successes of the day.
The swordsmen travel to both Princeton and Rutgers for meets this weekend. Princeton has already beaten Penn and should be especially rough.
