LARK INVITATIONAL, CENTRAL SERIES ONE

At the Central Series One regatta, the Lark Invitational, which was hosted by Tufts University over the weekend, Harvard took home top team honors in dominant fashion. The Crimson finished with 168 points over the two days of competition and beat the other eight schools in the field by over 100 points.

A pair of third-year sailors, Kopp and crew William White, finished first in the A division of racing, as the duo claimed 11 victories out of 18 races in the division. Senior skipper Colin Santangelo and junior crew Julia VanderVink earned two victories in the B division of racing.

“The Lark Invitational was a smaller local regatta,” Kopp said. “But we were still very pleased with how we performed and it was good for us to get tuned up for the rest of the year.”

HARVARD INVITATIONAL

Competing close to home on the Charles River in the Harvard Invitational, a small contingent of Crimson co-ed sailors claimed top honors among 12 teams. The A-division pair of sophomores Ryan Byrne and Nicholas Gordon placed third in its division, while sophomore skipper Sam Millham and freshman crew Alice Kenney won the B division of racing with five first-place finishes in eight races.
