COLUMBUS, Ohio – The Ohio State fencing program headed to Westerville for its 2019 Fall Break Leadership Retreat, allowing the group to connect as a team outside the gym.
Thursday, fencers left campus and traveled to secluded Summit Vision to practice leadership skills and team building exercises. The Buckeyes participated in a variety of challenges, each requiring focus on a different aspect of working as a team, such as trust, communication and verbal support. They even broke a facility record for fastest time recorded to complete a challenge. They then wrapped up their day on the high ropes course.
From sophomore Stephanie Miller:
“We are all very grateful we had this opportunity to become closer as a team and are excited to put these helpful skills to use in the gym and on and off the strip this year!”
UP NEXT
The Buckeyes welcome fencing alumni home for a fun weekend in Columbus. They will be participating in an alumni tournament and reunion, facility tour and team dinner.
