10 APRIL 2013: Lots more movement in the rankings this week, after some sleeper teams have awakened at a few more team race events over the past two weeks! Yale makes the biggest jump from 7th place in the previous rankings up to 2nd this week, after winning the SNETR and the Friis/Marchiando. We haven’t seen much team racing from College of Charleston recently, so they slipped down passed Yale and Georgetown, but are still ahead of 5th ranked BC who had some trouble at the SNETR but made up for it by finishing 2nd at the Friis/Marchiando Regatta hosted in Boston. Tufts is also creeping their way up through the rankings, “tired of being the spoiler,” according to Coach Legler. Harvard crushed the competition at the Ferrarone and along with MIT have put themselves on the board, making it into this week’s top 15 after not having been ranked.
A few team race nationals qualifiers have already been completed – in the PCCSC Championship, Stanford dominated and finished undefeated, followed by the UHawaii Rainbows who secured the second berth with a 7-3 record. Georgetown and St. Mary’s tied at the Captain Prosser Trophy, MAISA’s qualifying event, with the Hoyas winning the tie breaker for the victory, the Seahawks taking second, and Navy taking the third and final nationals berth.
