Bermuda Sailor Helps St. Mary's Team to Win College Nationals

St. Mary's skipper Jesse Kirkland (Warwick, Bermuda) with crew Madeline Jackson (Bainbridge Island, Wash.)
Over the three-day Memorial Day holiday weekend, the top 14 schools in the nation - as determined by their performance in one of the seven Inter-Collegiate Sailing Association conferences to which they belong - were in America's Heartland racing for the 2010 ICSA/APS Team Race National Championship title on Lake Mendota. And for one team, St. Mary's College (St. Mary's, Md.), it was a reversal of fortune from 2009 when the Seahawks lost this championship on a tie breaker, to come back and win this year's contest on a tie break with the same team - Boston College. Proving that they are a powerhouse in this format of sailing, the win marks the fifth time the Seahawks have clinched this unique championship which pits each college's three-boat team against another's in a round-robin series of matches.

Bermudians Paula Lewin and Blythe Walker have competed frequently at the King Edward VII Gold Cup through the years, but never won. They get another chance to correct that next week on Hamilton Harbour.

Lewin and Walker are two of the 16 entrants in the $50,000 Gold Cup regatta, Stage 4 of the 2006-'07 World Match Racing Tour. Racing is scheduled Oct. 11-15 and will be conducted in the International One-Design (IOD), a 33-foot sloop designed in the 1930s.

Bermuda
4th annual Junior Gold Cup Features 37 Teams
Event to determine Bermuda's team for Optimist Worlds at end of year.

The fourth annual Renaissance Reinsurance Junior Gold Cup, Oct. 12-15, will feature 12 sailors from around the world and up to 25 Bermudian entrants in four days of racing in the singlehanded Optimist dinghy.

The Junior Gold Cup will run concurrently with the 58th annual King Edward VII Gold Cup (Oct. 11-15). The events differ in more than just their amateur and professional status. The pros are racing for prize money, but the Junior Gold Cup is about more than racing.
