OBERG TROPHY

The youngest contingent of Harvard sailors stayed in the Boston area this weekend, competing against fifteen other in-conference schools. A sixth place finish in the tri-divisional regatta resultantly followed in extremely variable conditions, as the team totaled 293 points over the weekend’s 42 aggregate events.

“Saturday, it was incredibly windy; it was pretty consistently above 20 knots,” Karnovksy said. “But on Sunday [the wind] was very light, between five and ten knots all day, and sometimes even lighter than that. So they were two very different days of sailing. The first day was very fast and tricky, the second day was slower and much more tactical.”

The B-Division led the way for the Crimson. Freshmen Karnovsky and Alejandra Resendiz placed second among their division by posting 70 points, the lowest point total of the group and just one above the first place finisher in their fleet.

“[Finishing in second by one point] was a little bit frustrating, but we were happy with the performance,” Karnovsky said. “There were a couple of mistakes that probably cost us the win, but we were happy with the experience that we got. There was no way that we could have won it easily.”

In the other fleets, the A and C-Division crews finished with 128 and 95 points, respectively.
