WELLESLEY, Mass. – Wellesley College fencing Head Coach Rob Charlton made a recent appearance on the January 5th episode of USA Fencing's "First to 15" Podcast.

The podcast is sponsored by USA Fencing. Each episode features a figure in the fencing world, be it an athlete, coach, referee or outside expert.

Coach Charlton's episode focuses on why many more fencers are "good enough" to fence in college than they realize, and how to navigate the NCAA landscape without getting overwhelmed.
