Great Lakes High School Varsity Championships

This meet is open only to members of the Great Lakes High School Fencing Conference. $25 entry fee per fencer. All schools must register by 8:30am (central time). Approximate starting times: 9:00am ME-MF-WS 10:30am WE-WF-MS Conference Championship A. In order to fence in the GLHSFC Championships, a fencer needs to be a student at a GLHSFC high school, have competed in three Conference Meets during the season. If a fencer attends a school with a GLHSFC team, they may only represent their school team. B. The initial seeding of fencers at GLHSFC Championships is figured by averaging an individual fencer's two best finishes from the season. Fencers without three finishes from the season may not compete in the Championships. In all cases, fencers will be seeded by this formula. USFA ratings only apply as tie-breakers for students with the same GLHSFC seeding. C. Each high school team or club may enter up to four fencers in each weapon category (Mens' Foil, Womens' Foil, Mens' Epee, Womens' Epee, Mens' Sabre, Womens' Sabre). D. Conference Championships will be awarded in each weapon category (see above), and in Overall Mens' Team and Overall Womens' Team. Individuals finishing in the top eight of each competition will be recognized with trophies or medals, and will be considered All-Conference athletes. E. Team championships are calculated by adding the final placements of all fencers in the Conference Championship meet. The team with the lowest score wins. When teams enter less than four fencers in an event, they receive a score equivalent to the lowest finisher plus one for each missing fencer. Pre-Registration Closes on 2/1/2018.
