Congrats GUST! Hoyas 5th, Charlie Takes A Fleet in Shortened Coeds
Jun 4th, 10:43

In a regatta marred by too-light winds and weather delays, the Hoyas sailed to 5th place in the Coed Fleet Race National Championship over the past three days.  When all was said and done, GUST was a scant 16 points off the pace set by winners Boston College (winners of Coeds, Womens, and Team Race), but Hoyas were marred in any comeback attempt by the fact that the final two days of the regatta saw just one full set sailed by each fleet. 

Charlie Buckingham '11 and Alex Taylor '10 on their way to winning A-Fleet

The regatta comes down to a "what if..." had there been steadier breeze, but the Hoyas put in some top-notch performances and were certainly in with more than a shout.  Junior Charlie Buckingham added to his already impressive Georgetown resume, winning A-fleet by winning half of the 10 A races sailed, including an impressive start of three straight bullets.  Mike was searching for the right combination in B-fleet, and who knows what our skippers Chris Barnard '13, Marco Teixidor '10, and Scott Furnary '11 could have done had the regatta gone to 18 races.  With the exception of the Team Race Championship, the lake in Wisconsin wasn't up to the standards required for a National Championship regatta, but there is no doubt that the Hoyas sailed incredibly well.

Again, congratulations GUST and especially Charlie Buckingham, who along with crews Alex Taylor '10, Sydney Bolger '12, and Leah Volk '11 became the latest GUST skipper to win A-fleet at the National Championships.  Awesome job guys.  Way to go GUST, and As One!
