In reply to: Dramatic finish for women - underwhelming Sunday for men  posted by lavieenor


I didn't read the article closely and typed information from memory, but saw at least two inaccuracies in the article when I read it more closely. First, Pirkowski won 5-3, not 5-1, in the fence off. Second, women's saber went 18-9 on the day, not foil.

Also of note, Conway did not fence Sunday until subbed in for the last bout of the day which was in the head to head loss to Duke, which she won 5-1 and then won the fence off foil bout against Duke 5-3.

Interestingly, the official scoring that I linked here inaccurately notes that Conway lost the last bout 5-1 when, in fact, she won 5-1. There might be other inaccuracies in the official scoring.
