Northeast Pre-Regional Seeds – Men's Sabre (2010) »

Notes – CollegeFencing360.com is honoring a request from the NCAA Fencing Committee to not publish the "Fencing Seeding Factor" numbers with this list of seeds (instead, a simple ordering of 1 through 44 is used to indicate relative seed, while omitting the statistical "FSF" data) ... surprisingly, the FSF numbers again have been made public by others, but they will not appear on CF360  •  •  •  the proper name for this event is NCAA Northeast Regional (no "s" at the end of the word Regional and no wording that indicates "qualifier") ... the title NCAA Fencing Northeast Regional can be used as a longer form, and the shorter term Northeast Regional can be used after first reference.

The seeding data listed below is based on any sanctioned team dual-meet results during the 2009-10 academic year. Note that these seedings are very important to qualification for the NCAA Championships (40% based on seeding; 60% based on Regional performance/finish). Each team can qualify a maximum of two fencers per weapon for the NCAA Championships.

The Northeast Region currently is allocated eight automatic qualifiers for the NCAA Championships in every weapon except women's sabre (9). The NCAA round-robin format will include 24 total fencers in each weapon, as qualified from the four regions. There also are two at-large spots in each weapon, comprising a portion of the 24-fencer fields (again, each team still is limited to two total entrants in each weapon). 

A couple other notes and clarifications: (1) any fencer winning an NCAA Regional weapon title automatically qualifies for the NCAAs (regardless of seeding factor); (2) if a team has more than two fencers falling within the regional qualification standard (i.e. top-8 for most of the weapons in the Northeast), th6e coach can select which fencers will comprise the two NCAA entrants.

Based on the seedings listed below, three teams – Columbia, St. John's and Harvard – are in the best position to send the maximum two women's foilists to the NCAA Championships (March 25-28, at Harvard).
