Team EYC 2nd at USMRC Qualifier
A team of Eastern members sailed in the US Match Racing Championship Qualifier hosted by the Boston Yacht Club last week. The team went 6-1 in the Saturday round robin, making them the top seed going into the Sunday bracket. After winning 2-0 in the quarterfinals and 2-1 in the semifinals, the wind died and the time limit only allowed for one race of the finals series. EYC lost the only finals race by less than a boat length, finishing the regatta in a close second behind the 8th-ranked match racing skipper in the world. Alden Reid was the skipper and team captain, sailing with Hannah Lynn, Laura (McKenna) Mullins, and Ryan Mullins.
