PHILADELPHIA - The Temple fencing program will stay on North Broad for their first competition of the season, hosting the 41st Annual Temple Open on Oct. 23-24. All women's competition will take place on Saturday, while the men's competition will take place on Sunday.

For the 41st year, Owls will host the Temple Open in the Liacouras Center. Nearly 500 fencers from nearly 30 schools will compete at the event, and it is the largest collegiate fencing competition in the nation. Last year's event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
