Simpson Qualifies
at Laser Opener
September 2, 2001
GREAT NECK, N.Y.-- The Hobart sailing team sent three sailors to the
King's Point Laser Open on Sept. 1-2; sophomore John Pearce, sophomore
Matt Simpson, and junior Bobby Storck.
On the first day of competition, 10 races were sailed on modified olympic
and modified windward-leeward courses. The winds blew from the northwest
at 8-12 knots, providing the sailors with a solid breeze.
On Sunday, another eight races were completed. The light, 2-8 knot breeze
out of the west-northwest provided more adverse conditions.
The top four finishers qualified for the MAISA Men's Singlehanded Championship,
which will be held at Queen's University on Oct. 6-7.
