Scope and Contents
This series contains material related to the NYU men's and women's fencing team, dating from 1923 to 2015. In addition to the press, statistics, and rosters typically found in most sport-specific series (which are described at the collection-level), this series also includes team histories; all-time records lists from the 1920 to the 1960s; and individual athlete and coach files, which typically contain photographs, brief biographical material, and press releases and clippings. Materials related to the men's team's NCAA championship wins from the 1950s to the 1970s are also in this series, as well as photographs and press releases related to a visit in the early 1970s from former NYU team member Neil Diamond. This series also contains team equipment, including a saber, foil, and épée. In the 2000s, the season preview guides combined the men's and women's team information into one publication which is located in the combined subseries.
