NEW ENGLAND SINGLEHANDED CHAMPIONSHIP
Harvard faced its toughest results in the NEISA Men's Singlehanded Championship this weekend. The Crimson sent two sailors to race in this laser regatta but neither finished in the top spots that would have qualified them for Nationals in November.
Junior Marek Zaleski finished in seventh place with 89 points. Teammate and sophomore Juan Perdomo finished in 10th place. Perdomo took third place at this regatta last fall as a freshman in his breakout performance.
22 sailors from 13 schools competed Saturday and Sunday. Once again, the weather proved to be a major challenge for all the teams.
“This weekend saw light winds across New England,” Mollerus said. “As a result, there were fewer than the scheduled number of races in our three regattas with many of these races being sailed in trying conditions.”
