FFDUKE FENCING 2017 MEDIA GUIDE

Head coach Alex Beguinet will enter his 32nd season at the helm of the Duke program in 2017. Beguinet has compiled a 593-501 (.542) overall record in his 31 years with the Blue Devils and has coached two NCAA Champions.

In Beguinet’s time at Duke, the women’s program has compiled a 279-276 record under his direction and produced one three-time NCAA Champion and five All-Americans, while the men’s program has posted a 314-225 mark with 16 All-Americans and one NCAA Champion. Beguinet has helped Blue Devil fencers reach the NCAA Fencing Championships in 30 of his 31 years while sending over 100 participants to the national championships.

In 2016, the Duke fencing teams sent six student-athletes to the NCAA Fencing Championships, led by senior epee Isabella Barna’s sixth-place performance, earning All-America accolades. The Blue Devils placed ninth as a team, earning their sixth top-10 finish in the past seven seasons. The 2016 campaign also saw the return of the ACC Fencing Championships, where both the Duke men and women finished second behind Notre Dame. In individual competition, sophomore Jennifer Ling (saber) secured gold, while sophomore Dakota Nollner (epee) earned silver. With their ACC performances, Nollner and Ling received All-ACC recognition. The men ended the regular season with an 18-10 record, while the women finished 19-10.

Beguinet mentored one of the most successful fencers in NCAA history in three-time NCAA Saber Champion Becca Ward. Ward, who won the bronze medal at the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, reached the NCAA Championship match in each of her four seasons. She won the 2009, 2011 and 2012 NCAA titles while finishing as runner-up in 2010. Beguinet also mentored 2007 Duke graduate Ibtihaj Muhammad. Muhammad, who won bronze in women’s team saber at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio, was a three-time All-American and finished her college career ranked 15th nationally among senior women’s saber.

Beguinet served at US Fencing’s annual summer Junior Olympic Training Camps as a staff member for 10 years, served as coach for several International Cadet Championships and World Championships, and also participated as a coach at the fencing events for seven Olympic Festivals.

Alex Beguinet was the Director of the US Fencing Association’s coaching education program, Coaches College, from 1993 until the program was dissolved in 2011, and was a member of the education staff since the program, held annually at US Olympic Training Centers, was first implemented in 1985.

Born in Toulouse, France, Maitre Beguinet received his Master of Arms Degree from the National Sports Institute in Paris in 1976. Beguinet came to Duke after serving eight years as the head fencing coach at Lewis & Clark College in Portland, Ore.

Beguinet was the owner/director of Salle La Boessiere in Portland from 1980-84. While there, in addition to coaching for Lewis and Clark College in Portland, he coached at Portland Community College, Clark College in Vancouver, Wash., Mt. Hood Community College in Gresham, Ore., and instructed for the city of Portland’s Park Bureau.

He lives with his wife, Elizabeth, on their recently acquired abandoned farm, restoring it to working order. They have one daughter, Heather, who is a Duke alumnae.

In his third year as Duke’s saber specialist, Huchwajda helped all four sabers compile winning records of 50 or more. He guided Jennifer Ling and Haley Fisher to the ACC Championships with Ling garnering gold and All-ACC accolades and Fisher bringing home bronze. Huchwajda also led Pascual Di Tella, Charles Copti and Fisher to the NCAA Championships in Waltham, Mass.

At Oregon Fencing Alliance, Huchwajda mentored a number of the nation’s top fencers, including former Blue Devil and three-time NCAA Saber Champion Becca Ward.

Prior to his time at Oregon Fencing Alliance, Huchwajda was the saber coach at the world-renowned Tauberbischofsheim Fencing Club in Tauberbischofsheim, Germany, from 1992-2006. During his time at Tauberbischofsheim, Huchwajda coached Olympic bronze medalist Alex Weber, Junior World Cup winner Tamara Biesinger and Cadet World Cup runner-up Mathias Grimm.

Huchwajda enjoyed a decorated fencing career, fencing saber with the German National Team from 1991-98. In addition to twice representing Germany at the Olympics, Huchwajda was a three-time gold medalist at the German Open Saber Championship (1992, 1994, 1996), a two-time team bronze medalist at the World Fencing Championship (1991, 1993), a silver medalist at the 1996 Senior World Cup, a three-time German Senior National individual and team Champion, a three-time German Junior National Champion and a winner of the 1987 Junior World Cup.

Huchwajda also served in the German military in the sport division where he competed as a saber fencer and was the 1991 World Champion at the World Military Championships.

A native of Pozna, Poland, Huchwajda graduated from Trener Academy in 1994. He and his wife, Magda, have four children: Marcel, Pola, Alex and Sophia.

In his fourth season, Wei helped guide the Blue Devils to a ninth-place finish at the 2016 NCAA Championships. As the staff’s foil specialist, Wei mentored a women’s foil unit that featured Kristen Coury and Julia Lee, who produced 51 and 41 wins, respectively, and a men’s squad that boasted two fencers with at least 30 wins. At the ACC Championships, Jan Maceczek and Samantha Lee posted impressive performances under Wei, going fourth and fifth, respectively.

Previously, Wei coached at the Northwest Fencing Center in Portland, Ore., working with the senior women’s foil team that won back-to-back national championships in 2008 and 2009 and the senior men’s foil team which won a national championship in 2010 and a bronze medal in 2011. Athletes who have trained with Wei have earned success at a high level, including North American Cup finals, National Championships and NCAA Championship berths.

A native of Greenwood, Ind., Wei holds a B.S. in Computer Science from the Rochester Institute of Technology (2001). He is married to Kathryn Pierrynowski.
