Sewanee’s Main, Edge, Cosby and Buck, and NC State’s du Plessis and Sowa earn SAISA Sailors of the Week Honors

Posted March 31, 2023

This past weekend in SAISA featured state championship regattas in the Carolinas, Florida, and a combined Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia event, the first such events under the new, revised SAISA schedule. Hosted by the University of Tennessee after a late venue change, the Tennessee, Alabama, and Georgia "TAG" Trophy regatta was won in impressive fashion by the Sewanee Tigers. Led by Heyward Main (Sr., Charleston, SC), Michael Edge (So., Raleigh, NC), Graham Cosby (Fr., Charleston, SC), and Kendall Buck (Jr., Fairhope, AL), the Sewanee Tigers delivered a perfect regatta with picket fences (all first-place finishes) in every race in both divisions. They even carried bullets into the 5th race of the regatta in A-Division before conditions deteriorated and B-Division was unable to complete a matching rotation. Winning both A and B-Divisions, and the overall regatta, the Sewanee squad secured the first TAG Trophy, debuted undefeated in college sailing, and earned SAISA Open Sailors of the Week!
