RICHMOND, Calif. – The University of Hawai'i coed sailing team placed third at the PCCSC Spring Fleet Championship hosted by California, April 19-20.

Stanford narrowly took the regatta title with UC Santa Barbara right behind them in second, each receiving the conference's automatic berths to the ICSA Nationals next month in Maryland. With a finish outside the top two, Hawai'i will have to hope for an at-large bid, announced on April 29.

In a field of 16 schools from the PCCSC, a total of 16 races, split evenly between A and B divisions, were completed throughout the event. The Rainbow Sailors' 68 points put them just short of the top two, behind Stanford's and UCSB's 60 and 63 points, respectively.

UH's A division performed spectacularly in this regatta, winning two races and placing top two in six of their eight, scoring a division-low 20 points. Representing the A division was skipper Erik Anderson with Amanda Turner as crew. Everett McAvoy skippered the B division with Sophia Shaeffer serving as crew.
