LaserPerformance Men's Singlehanded ChampionshipNational Championship FinalsSinglehandedOld Dominion in LaserView full reportSunday, November 8The final day of the 2015 LaserPerformance Men's Singlehanded National Championship came to a close in dramatic fashion. Sailors were greeted with a nice 15 knot NE breeze that held for most of the day. The fresh conditions allowed the sailors to stretch their legs a bit and enjoy some classic Laser conditions off the wind as well. 8 races were completed with a short lunch break. After the break the breeze tapered down to 6-10 knots with large oscillations. The racing was tight throughout the fleet but the top 4 boats entered the last race with only 5 points separating them. By the halfway point in the race, Malcolm Lamphere of Yale and Juan Perdomo from Harvard began to separate themselves from their closest competitors. As Juan was able to hold his lead to the finish the points were close coming into the closing few boatlengths. In the end, Malcolm was able to stay just close enough with a 3rd to take the championship by 3 points. One breakdown was heard and granted due to a broken hiking strap but otherwise no protests or requests for redress were filed. A big thanks to Christine Accettella and her crew of judges including John Pratt, Peter Johns, and Mary Hall. Also a big thank you to John Hanna for providing his boat as a coaching platform. But most importantly, thanks should go to the ODU Sailors for running the event in a professional manner. Congratulations to Yale's Malcolm Lamphere '18 on the win.
