Men's Fencing Sweeps to Ivy Title, Women's Team Takes Third

Sweeping four bouts over two days, the Princeton men's fencing team won the Ivy League title for the second straight year on Sunday at The Palestra in Philadelphia, clinching the title with a 14-13 win over Columbia.

The men's title was the program's 18th all-time and gave the program its first back-to-back Ivy titles since 2016-17. It was the team's first outright Ivy League title since 2012, and the first time since that year that Princeton swept through the Ivy round-robin unbeaten.

Five Tigers earned All-Ivy League honors on the men's side, with Alec Brooke (10-2 record at 2025 Ivies) and Nicholas Lawson (9-2) as first-team épées, Allen Chen (8-4) as a first-team foil, and Matthew Limb (7-5) and Adam Lai (6-5) as second-team sabers.

The women's team entered Sunday with a chance to win the Ivy title, but a 19-8 loss to Harvard left the Tiger women with only a chance to share the title until Harvard closed out a sweep of its own with a win over Penn as Princeton lost to Columbia 17-10 to finish 4-2 and take third.

Rookie Emese Domonkos (14-4) was the Ivy League saber champion and earned first-team All-Ivy honors along with saber teammate Alexandra Lee (13-5). Épée Hadley Husisian (14-4) earned first-team honors while foil Maia Weintraub (11-6) and Chin-Yi Kong (14-4) were second-team All-Ivy honorees, as was saber Madeline Sanz (11-7).

Princeton will return to competition on Feb. 23 at the Temple Duals in Philadelphia.
