Ploch, Genet, McKissick-Hawley, and Johnson Named SAISA Sailors of the Week
Despite chilly conditions in much of the country during week 7, team racing is heating up across the ICSA including the Graham Hall at Navy, and the Southern New England Team Race regatta. In women's fleet racing, the St. Mary's Spring Women's regatta was top interconference billing, however both this week's women's and co-ed SOTW honors were earned at the two conference regattas held in Atlanta and Gainesville.
***Shanahan and Reynolds are the NEISA Coed Sailors of the Week***
***Klingler and Woods are the NEISA Women’s Sailors of the Week***
The Graham Hall is the largest team race on the College Sailing spring schedule. Showcasing 16 teams, this year’s edition ended with 122 races sailed. The accomplished Race Committee at Navy completed a full 16 team round robin and tie-break sail offs between the second and third finishing teams as well as between the tenth and eleventh finishing teams. Ian Burman, Head Coach at the Naval Academy had the following to say of the now iconic event:
The charges brought forth Tuesday are troubling for all of us in College Sailing. Currently available public information indicates that no other Stanford coaches, Stanford athletes, or any other College Sailing programs, were involved.
The Intercollegiate Sailing Association strives to provide fair, affordable, competitive opportunities for undergraduates in a non-scholarship, coeducational, and student-centered environment. College Sailing characterizes the values that most universities hope to provide for all their student-athletes, whether varsity, club or recreational.
The ICSA Executive Committee has removed John Vandemoer from all Standing, and ad hoc Committee positions within the Intercollegiate Sailing Association. At this time, no further action will be taken.
