A solid success. Besides having a great time, we beat two top 20 ranked teams and had a shot at qualifying for nationals. We sailed only 4 people the whole time through varying conditions compared to other teams that qualified for nationals using several skippers and crews. Overall, we did better than our team has done since 1976 and we expect to do even better with a deeper team next year.

Awards
We had our final banquet on April 13th. The following awards were given out...
Best Skipper - Pat Curran - Pat has sailed very well this year. He is always on the water practicing and sails frequently during the summer.
Best Crew - Bri Morgan - Bri came to Penn not planning to sail, however, she quickly secured a spot on our A team. She sails nearly every weekend and is our current social chair.
Most Improved - Doug Lotz - Doug started his first semester freshman year crewing. He quickly became a skipper and even sailed Lasers in Annapolis. With two years left he is vying for a spot on the A team.
Most Dedicated - Caroline Keogh - Caroline was the captain as a sophomore and has not stopped contributing to the team since then. Whether she is skippering Lasers, crewing or the center of attention at social functions she is always helping out the team.
Mike Smeets and Tom Digiano Award for Drunken Debauchery - Kelley Millane...
