Looks like the Hoyas just missed out on the final four in Team Racing, and will finish 5th in that championship, despite going 5-2 this morning, they couldn't quite dig out of yesterday's 1-6 hole, missing out on the final four by one win.

Hoyas currently in 9th place, halfway into day 1 of the Dinghy championships. Results via the link below...

Year in and year out, Mike Callahan puts one of the University's top athletic programs out on the water - its a shame they don't get any sort of recognition. I was lucky enough to cover the team on their national championship run back in my junior year for The Hoya - the last time (I'm guessing) they made the front page of The Hoya sports section on more than a few occasions (due to their many successes and NOT my writing skills, of course).

Crew ain't the only water sport on The Hilltop...

GU currently 4th, only 6 points behind the leader, Dartmouth... and 6 points isn't that hard to make up.
