P.S.A.L. FENCING CHAMPIONSHIP
The foil team from the New Utrecht High School won the Public School Athletic League fencing team championship for the second straight year on April 20th by defeating the Stuyvesant High School team 8-4 on the Washington Irving High School strips. These two teams had each won the championship of their respective divisions the week previously. New Utrecht’s victory over Stuyvesant was its seventeenth in a string extending over a period of two seasons. James Madison High School took third place in the league race with a 7-5 victory over Abraham Lincoln High School.
In addition to the competitive results, the P.S.A.L. also makes an annual award to the team showing the best form throughout the tournament. Morris High School won the form award with an average of 6.93, with Bayside High School a close second with 6.88, and New Utrecht third with 6.81.
