This video produced by Quinn Crum ā€˜19 pretty much captures the spirit of the Columbia Fencing 2018-19 championship season https://youtu.be/yp3UMwLRtNs

Admittedly, when I came to work with the Columbia Fencing Team, I was really interested in the opportunity to get inside the mind of a championship coach, and helping a top flight fencing program regain its championship status. Something else happened. Respect. I developed a deep respect for these student/athletes. They are not like athletes you see garnering highlights on ESPN, many of whom don’t endure the academic demands these students face. Recently, I spoke with one sophomore fencer who had only five hours sleep over a four day period because he had a paper due. This is not the exception for this team. This may be why top high school fencers don’t commit to Columbia. It’s a challenge that demands high scholastic achievement, physical conditioning, and a commitment to teammates. In spite of this, they produce championships. And yes, it takes a coach who understands how to recruit students with both the skills and the character to not only survive the rigors, but thrive. It really isn’t a fencing program with clearly defined steps that lead to a championship. It’s a system that is constantly re-evaluated, and adjusted accordingly. There’s nothing conventional about it. Success, here, is based on accountability. From the coach, all the way down to, well, yours truly.
