Congratulations to the sailing team. Too bad the NCAA doesn't recognize it.

3 different classes at the same national championship meet, for those scoring at home.

Just to correct the above post about other schools "claiming" the title- Boston College won the Women's Sailing National Championship which was held May 31-June 2nd. The Lady Hoyas finished 4th at that College of Charleston won the Team Racing National Championship (a Championship the Hoyas have won in 2001 and 2006) which was held June 3-5. - The Hoyas finished 6th this year. Georgetown won the ICSA Coed Fleet Racing National Championship held June 6-8. This is the oldest and most prestigious regatta in College Sailing dating back to 1937 and is the most coveted National Championship. ESPNU filmed the regatta and will be airing a 1 hour special on the event July 6th at 6PM. In addition to the National Championship six Georgetown sailors were named All American including Sydney Bolger who was named the Women's Sailor of the Year and Chris Barnard who is the College Sailor of the Year. This is the 5th time in seven years that a Hoya has been named the player of the year - no other school comes close to it.

Thanks for the clarification. Since sailing has championships by regatta, it is different when compared with sports that have a single national titleist.

ESPNU will be showing the 2012 College Sailing National Championship today (July 6) at 6PM and then again Sunday (July 8) at 9AM. If you get a chance turn it on and watch the Hoyas win the National Championship!
