Princeton Women's Regatta Recap

This past weekend marks a great milestone for Penn Sailing with our participation in our first ever Women's Regatta.

Senior Christine Roche, Junior Katie Buzby, and Freshmen Amanda Johnson and Amanda Vecchione all competed at the regatta held at Princeton's yacht club in Perth Amboy, NJ.

Conditions were very light the first day, but the team did extraordinarily well, with Amanda and Katie finishing first in their division, and Amanda V and Christine finishing 3rd in one of their races. The second day proved more difficult for the team, with shifty conditions and a very short race course. Overall, the team ended up 5th- a great accomplishment for our first ever women's team!
