Ahmed Hesham wins saber to lead Notre Dame men to inaugural three-weapon
championship
SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) --- Notre Dame's Ahmed Hesham won the men's saber on
Sunday, and the Fighting Irish men joined the women in winning the inaugural
three-weapon national championship at the Joyce Center.
Hesham defeated St. John's Adham Moataz 15-12 in the final after a third-place
finish last season.
Notre Dame finished with 91 points, 10 better than runner-up Columbia. St.
John's (63), Harvard (62) and Pennsylvania (58) rounded out the top five.
Notre Dame's Chase Emmer fell short in defense of his foil title after losing
15-8 to Columbia's Sam Kumbla in the final.
Fighting Irish freshman Kruz Schembri made it to the pe final before losing
to North Carolina's Youssef Shamel 15-7.
The Fighting Irish trio led all three disciplines after the first day.
Notre Dame won 14 co-ed championships, including six of the last eight. The
Fighting Irish won last season's title in the final year of the combined men's
and women's team championship.
Notre Dame edged Columbia 102-99 on Friday to win the first women's
three-weapon title. Eszter Muhan won the pe for the Irish.
