Sophomore Quentin Schneider (Gonesse, France) posted six victories in the men's foil after three rounds. He is 6-9 overall and in 15th place out of 24 competitors in the foil. Schneider has a -11 indicator through the first three rounds.

Senior Nick Silantyev (Tashkent, Uzbekistan) is the other competitor for WSU at the NCAA Championships. Silantyev didn't post a victory during Thursday's rounds as he finished with a -42 indicator. He had 33 touches against 75 touches received.
