The event featured eight teams which finished in the top ten at the 2015 LaserPerformance Team Race Nationals, including defending national champion Yale, who finished one spot behind the Cardinal.
Stanford started strongly in the first two rounds, going 7-2 and 6-3 to put them in the finals with Yale, Charleston and eventual champions Georgetown. The Cardinal defeated Georgetown and Yale in the first round of finals, but dropped three decisions in the second round to settle for third place and a 15-9 overall record.
The Cardinal, sailing in its second event of the spring, was skippered by sophomore Will La Dow, senior Axel Sly, junior Reinier Eenkema van Dijk and senior Antoine Screve.
Juniors Nikki Obel and J.P. Cannistraro, sophomores Grace Lucas and Kennedy Placek and senior Sammy Steele served as crews.
Stanford returns to the water March 19-20 when it sends five teams to three cities. The Bryson Women’s Regatta and the Gold/Silver Regatta will be hosted by the Cardinal in Redwood City, Calif. with teams also competing at the Graham Hall Team Race in Annapolis, MD., the Laser Midwinters West Regatta in Long Beach, Calif. and the St. Mary’s Women’s Interconference in St. Mary’s City, MD.
