The Coed sailors qualify for the Coed Showcase Finals- The Fiske Harriman Sleigh at Connecticut College; Stanford and Harvard look strong before the Women’s Showcase Finals.
The United States Naval Academy won their side of the Coed Showcase Qualifiers, at home. The regatta was a full 36 race event and the drama extended throughout the event as Georgetown, the regatta leader from race 1B to race 17A were overtaken by Navy during the final set of the regatta.
Navy’s success came as a team effort as sophomore phenoms, Joseph Hermus and Sally Johnson won A-Division narrowly over Sean Segerblom ‘20 and Annabelle Ayer ‘22 of Georgetown. Meanwhile, Parker Loftus ‘20 and Kimmie Leonard ‘22 of Navy finished the regatta with a 1,2,1,1,1 to spark Navy’s run to pass the Hoyas. Navy has now won the last four doublehanded, fleet race regattas sailed at home.
As the fall regular conference season draws to a close, teams in SAISA North and SAISA South hit the water at the final division points regattas this past Saturday with championship qualifications in the balance. In the South Eckerd College secured the division title despite a late surge and points event win from USF. In the North Division, NC State won in Wilmington, earned the division title for the first time in program history, and are recognized as this week's SAISA Conference Sailors of the Week for Week 4.
