Regatta results 16 September

Sailing at NYCC for the first fleet race this year, we entered one varsity A/B pair and one JV boat in the regatta. Here is the report from the regatta organizers:

    Sailors were met with a beautiful clear day on the Lafayette River with temperatures in the 70's. Breezes were NNE 10-15 mph with gusts higher and some oscillations to the east.

    On the varsity course, twenty-four teams from 15 schools completed 5 W4/W3 races in each division. Norfolk Collegiate Team 1 took first place, followed by Christchurch School Team 1 in second place, Christchurch School Team 2 in third place and Nansemond-Suffolk Academy in fourth place.

    The JV competition saw twelve teams from 9 schools complete 6 W4 races. Norfolk Academy Team 1 took first place, followed by Norfolk Academy Team 2 in second place, Poquoson High School Team 1 in third place, and Walsingham Academy in fourth place.

Here are our varsity results:



Our A/B pairs and their finishes (out of 24 boats) were:

A1-2, 5 Jake/Mark 24, 24, 23
A3-4 Matt L./ Matt M. 23, 22
B1-2 Maggie/Sabrina 23, DNF
B3-4 Charlie/Sabrina 8, 13
B5 Charlie/Maggie 15

Charlie's 8th out of 24 was the highest place we've had all season.

In the JV fleet of 12 we entered one boat. Here are the results:



Races 1-2, 5-6 Zach/Tyler 11, 11, 12, 12 
Races 3-4 Gus/Oliver 12, DNF

As the day wore on we were definitely getting closer to the pack. The JV racing ended at 1:00 p.m.
