Boston University showed poise in trying conditions at Connecticut College
Boston University won the Coed Showcase Championship Finals hosted by Connecticut College in mostly light and uncertain conditions. Competitors waited on shore for much of the first day of competition before hitting the water for 11 total races between the two divisions on Saturday. The breeze on Saturday started from the SSW and sailors were hiking . However, as the sun set the breeze clocked right to the SW as the day got late. The heavy current and shifty breeze on the Thames made for tough work for the race committee. The final races of the day Saturday were sailed on extremely skewed courses due to the extreme ebb.
The breeze on the Severn wasn't the only thing ready to go at 10AM on Saturday as College of Charleston's Ali Toppa and Hannah Kinder started the Jen Harris Women's Showcase Finals with a bullet and a second putting the Cougars in the early lead. At the top fall showcase finals for women's sailing, the fleet was extremely deep and talented with some of the best women sailors in college competing. Charleston's Toppa and Kinder took the regatta lead into the first rotation and kept pace with the talented field finishing the event with their Cougar teammates just four points south of the podium in fifth. With the outstanding performance in Annapolis, Toppa and Kinder earn women's Sailors of the Week for Week 6.
