Title: The 36th Lynne Marchiando Trophy Summary

Sunday, April 2

Clearing skies with a NNW breeze at 5-10 held most of the day on the balmy Charles River for the final day of sailing. A completion round was sailed for both silver and gold with 4 flights in each against teams they had not yet met. Then a full round of 7 flights against all teams in their division. Total races sailed was 144 with each team sailing in 18 flights of races.

Dartmouth Big Green sailed away from a very tough field only losing twice on the last weekend of competition before the Fowle Trophy for the New England Championships next week at Tufts.

Hosting an event with two fleets of 24 colored FJs and 24 colored Fireflies was a monumental task that was a success only because of the huge number of volunteers. Umpires who braved the cold on Saturday and invoked instantaneous judging all weekend long were headed by Jeff Dusek. Thanks go out to Kelsey Wheeler, Sam Madden, Alec Ruiz Ramon, Will Bailey, Colin Smith, John Moulthrop, Solomon Tarlin, and Kate Wysocki.

MIT Sailors kept the scoring updated and took turns freezing to death on Saturday in the finish boats were- Stephen Duncan, Fiona McKellar, Connor Chung, Sara Caso, James Peraire-Bueno, Thacher Chamberlain, John Piotti, Tiffany Xi, Brooke McGoldrick, David Alfonso, Marcus Abate, Jorlyn LeGareck, Noa Yoder, Julia Cho, and Hugh Dougherty. Coaches Matt Lindblad and Mike Kalin did a monumental effort in keeping everything organized throughout the event.

The regatta's success is a great tribute to former MIT Varsity sailor Lynne Marchiando from the class of 1985.
