Sailing Hosts, Takes Fifth at NEISA Championship

The Crimson maintained the same lineup for the entirety of the weekend. The duos of Sertl and sophomore crew Nomin-Erdene Jagdagdorj, freshman skipper Dylan Farrell and Gross, and junior skipper Adam Brodheim and freshman crew Kirstin Anderson competed at the regatta.

Despite ending the weekend with a fifth place finish, the team is qualifying this regatta in other ways.

“Even though our win loss record wasn't great, there was definitely a lot to show for it,” Sertl said. “We were competitive in every race and were always making good plays.”

EMILY WICK TROPHY

An all-female contingent competed in the interconference regatta hosted by Coast Guard, racing in 420s and FJs. The squad finished in 18th, after dropping out of the B division races due to injuries.

The duo of freshman Taylor Ladd and junior Kristina Jakobson finished the A division races tied for 13th in 420s. Without a boat competing in the B division race, the team slipped to last place.

The pool of competition included teams from around the United States. The Crimson faced new competitors such as Wisconsin, Southern Florida, and Santa Clara. Ancient Eight rival Yale took first place for the third consecutive year.

The weather proved similar to that of the NEISA Championship, with gusts on Saturday and little to no wind on Sunday.
