    NATIONAL COLLEGIATE MEN’S AND WOMEN’S FENCING CHAMPIONSHIPS RECORDS BOOK 2016 Championship 2 History 4 All-Time Team Results 8 2016 CHAMPIONSHIP HIGHLIGHTS Columbia takes home second straight title: The final day of action at the 2016 NCAA National Collegiate Fencing Championships, held at Brandeis, saw three repeat winners. Two individuals achieved the feat, while Columbia was crowned the team champions for the second year running. The Lions took a 13-point lead into the day, and though it closed to double digits at certain points throughout the day, the repeat was not really in question. Columbia finished with a seven-point victory, 174-167, over Ohio State, thanks to a balanced attack that saw them score 30 points in three of the six weapons and not less than 24 in any of them. “To come out ahead shows what a great group of individuals we have on our team,” Columbia coach Michael Aufrichtig said. “Other than all the practices and workouts and all the preparation, one of the main things it came down to is their heart, their love for each other. So when they’re out there on the strip, they’re fencing for not just themselves but for their entire team.” Columbia is the first repeat NCAA Fencing champion since Penn State in 2009 and 2010. It’s the Lions’ fourth overall combined title since the championship went to this format in 1990. They also won back-to-back titles in 1992 and 1993. Ohio State finished in second place despite qualifying one less than the maximum 12 qualifiers for the championship.

[MUSIC PLAYING] CARL NATHY: Hello, and welcome to the Behind the Blue podcast. I'm Carl Nathy, pleased to be joined in this interview by Lee Kiefer. Lee has just finished her second year of medical school at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine. She grew up in Lexington, and she has some very interesting things going on in her life, including being a two time Olympic. I said, yes, summer Olympics, as in London 2012, 2016 in Rio de Janeiro. And she is aiming to compete in the summer 2020 Olympics in Tokyo, Japan. Lee thanks for taking the time, and welcome in. LEE KIEFER: Thank you for having me. Happy to be here. CARL NATHY: You have a fascinating background. Tell us a little bit. You grew up in Lexington, and grew up in a family that had both fencing in the family and medical education in the family. LEE KIEFER: Yes. Fencing and medicine is all I've ever known since I was born, it seems like. Growing up, my dad, who is a physician, he decided that he wanted to try fencing. He hadn't picked up a foil, let's say, in 10, 15 years. And me and my siblings watched him compete at a local tournament. And then he asked if we wanted to try it. We said yes, and then almost 20 years later, I'm still here.

  • USA Fencing Board of Directors Meeting Columbus, Ohio July 1, 2013 CEO Report 1. Key Success Factors
    USA Fencing Board of Directors Meeting Columbus, Ohio July 1, 2013 CEO Report 1. Key Success Factors Finance. This year through budget cuts, better management oversight and procedures, the organization is on track to meet our projected $840,000 positive net income. If achieved, this will be the highest net income that USA Fencing has ever met. We have paid down our current and long term liabilities at an impressive rate. Specifically, since the beginning of this fiscal year we have paid down on our accounts payable by $958,000. Cash Flow has been carefully monitored and we have successfully worked through our low cash periods. Credit terms are now being extended to us which is a crucial part of managing cash flow. This is not only a huge improvement from 2012, but will provide a good reference for us next season. As of June, none of the $250,000 line of credit provided to us by the USFF has been accessed. Development. USA Fencing has completed two giving campaigns this year. Life members and past donors received a personalized letter at the end of year highlighting our successes and plans for 2013-14. To wrap up the 2012-13 season, an electronic appeal will be sent out to all members in conjunction with an ad in the Summer Nationals program. General donation revenue is up over 2011-12 by 53% reflecting an increase in over $12,000. A formal development plan was created for diversifying and increasing annual giving revenues. The organization is also applying for grant funding outside of the USOC grant opportunities and will continue to seek out other foundation opportunities.

    Minutes Special Meeting of the USA Fencing Board of Directors April 26, 2012 via Teleconference Present: Bradley Baker, Bill Becker, David Blake, Aaron Clements, Wes Glon, David Herr, Terry Kwan, Laurie Schiller, Jay Strass, Kalle Weeks, Alex Wood Absent: Mario Rodriguez, Sunil Sabharwal, Jeff Salmon, Soren Thompson Guests: Donald Alperstein, Nancy Anderson, Donald Anthony, Dan Berke, Mr. DeVille, Greg Dilworth, Kris Ekeren I. General Information and Organizational Items General announcements Remarks – Kalle Weeks, President Ms. Weeks extended congratulations to all athletes named to our Olympic and Paralympic Teams. She also acknowledged all of their coaches. A lot of hard work, many long plane rides and sore muscles and much dedication to our sport have gone into the pursuit which now has paid off with a trip to London. Congratulations are due also to World Teams not going as teams to the Games. Congratulations were extended to the Women’s Sabre and Men’s Epee teams for their World Championship medals. This represents the first ever world championship for the USA in Men’s Epee, team or individual. Two members of the Board, Soren and Mario, are going to London as part of our team. This is a tremendous statement of their commitment to the sport that they can simultaneously serve on the Board and achieve what they have athletically. Some concerns have been raised about an early draft of a USOC audit report. We are currently looking into circumstances under which circulation of a draft occurred. There is some background material in the Executive Director’s report. We will further discuss the report during the Budget & Finance portion of this meeting.
