Here is a short video of my daughter Melen fencing against a nationally ranked USFA fencer from Culver Military Academy by the name of Allison Rudolph. Allison is a very talented fencer and has won tournaments and qualified in the Junior Olympics, she is a high school senior. This event ended a couple hours ago and was held in Winnetka, IL (Chicago). My daughter is on the left in the video wearing a black stock and a yellow sock (her team colors).

Watch the scoring box on the table. The lights on the box indicate who scores. A red light is a touch for Melen, a green light indicates a touch for Allison. If both lights go on then the director must decide who to award the touch to. 5 touches determine the bout.
