Athletic racing

Athletics is now a Major sport for both the girls and boys during the summer term.

We have a large number of both senior and junior athletes who take part in some very specialized athletics training which culminates in several matches against single and co educational schools. The senior girls‘ side has been unbeaten for the past two seasons and they have produced some outstanding individual results.

We are the current girls Scottish Schools Relay Champions at O17 level for the second year in a row and Alicia Lawson secured a gold medal at the Scottish Schools Pentathlon Championships.

The end of our season is highlighted with a very competitive Sports Day where our talented group of athletes really gets to shine. For athletics to be successful we have to have a large number of staff members willing to help out. We are very fortunate that we do have a large number of staff willing to help out.

2009 marks the 19th annual National Girls and Women in Sports Day (NGWSD) celebration at the University at Buffalo. The Division of Athletics organizes numerous activities designed to honor our varsity female athletics teams, our competitive female club sports, women who have positively impacted UB women's athletics, and our faculty and staff who work directly with the female athletes.

Women's intercollegiate athletics at the University at Buffalo began in 1963-64 when the first modern varsity team, swimming and diving, was established. Now competing at the NCAA Division I level, these recent accomplishments point to the continued success of UB's women athletes, both on the playing field and in the classroom:

  • a Mid-American Conference (MAC) regular season title by women's soccer in 2000
  • the MAC Women's Cross Country Champion in 2004
  • a three-time NCAA participant and a four-time MAC Champion in track and field
  • the first All-MAC honoree in women's cross country in 2003 and the first track event champion (10,000 meters) during the 2004 outdoor track and field season
  • a two-time MAC Swimmer of the Year (2002-03, 2004-05) and a College Swimming Coaches Association of America (CSCAA) Academic All-American
  • the highest team GPA in the nation in Division I for two consecutive semesters by women's swimming and diving
  • a MAC Freshman of the Year (2004-05), MAC Defensive Player of the Year (2000-01) and a two-time Kodak Honorable Mention All-American (1999-2000, 2000-01) in women's basketball
  • the MAC Newcomer of the Year and an All-MAC First Team selection in women's tennis in both 2003-04 and 2004-05
  • a tennis coach named PTR Eastern Coach of the Year in 2002
  • the school's first medal at the Head of the Charles Regatta (a fourth-place finish by the Collegiate 8 crew), a first-place finish by the Novice 4 at the Knecht Cup and the school's first championship at the Dad Vail Regatta, one of the most prestigious and largest rowing events in the country, since being elevated to varsity status by the Novice 8 crew in 2004-05
  • the MAC's single-season and career softball batting average leader and the MAC's regular season ERA (1.38) leader in 2004
  • four All-Region honorees in softball and a milestone win over a nationally-ranked team in 2003

Athletic race
Originating as a way of settling disputes, Fencing has its roots in ancient sword fighting. There are 3 different types of weapons in fencing; the épée a sword similar to the duels of the 19th century, the foil, a thin flexible blade and the sabre, whose technique emphasizes speed and feints. Each weapon has its own associated scoring zone on the opponent’s body and is played to a unique set of rules.

Many techniques of fencing are used for stunts and fight scenes in films; therefore fencing requires athletes to be quick and nimble. Mental skills are as crucial as physical ones with concentration and quick thinking being especially important.

Did you know...?

Fencing is one of only four sports to have appeared in every modern Olympic Games.

The tip of the fencing weapon is the second fastest moving object in sport; the first is a bullet.

Alex O’Connell, Team GB’s sole fencing representative at the Beijing Olympics, has taken part in the UK School Games as a referee in 2007 and as an Athlete Ambassador in 2008.

Structure

Selection events chosen by each weapon committee, i.e. for Epee, Foil and Sabre. Selection by each home country is based on the British team selection ranking, points for which are attained through an identified list of events. Details of selection events and policies used for 2009 are on the British Fencing web site and are the same for all home countries.

Four teams representing England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
