The Waterloo Warriors took to the piste over the weekend of February 8 and 9, 2025, competing in the OUA Women's Fencing Championship at the Queen's Athletics and Recreation Centre. The event brought together thirteen universities from across Ontario, all contending for the prestigious Kay Aoyama Trophy. With a highly competitive field, the championship showcased the province's top fencing talent, making for an intense and exciting tournament.
The Warriors put forth a determined effort throughout the weekend, demonstrating both skill and resilience in a series of hard fought bouts. With a mix of experienced fencers and developing talent, Waterloo held their own against some of the strongest programs in the OUA. Their mid table finish reflected a solid performance, highlighting their ability to challenge higher ranked teams while also setting a foundation for continued growth in future seasons.
