The ICSA sailors defeated the visiting British sailors 2-1 in the 2019 Lord King Match Race. The racing took place out of the US Naval Academy on Tuesday September 17 in two of the Academy's Navy 44s.
As a courtesy to the visiting sailors, BUSA was given the option to choose either: Starboard entry for race one (and race three if necessary), or pick which of the Navy 44s to race in. Seeing as the fleet of 44s are all equal, the savvy Brits chose starboard entry.
The Intercollegiate Sailing Association (ICSA) honored three individuals for their contributions to the sport of college sailing by inducting them into the ICSA Hall of Fame over the course of the 2019 ICSA Spring National Championships hosted at Sail Newport Sailing Center at Fort Adams by Brown University with support from the New England Intercollegiate Sailing Association (NEISA), the University of Rhode Island, Harvard University and Dartmouth University.
Alyson Leigh Schwerdtfeger (Waltham, Mass.) was recognized with the James Rousmaniere Award for student leadership; Kenneth Legler (Reading, Mass.) was honored with the Campbell Family Award for Lifetime Service; Jesse Andrews (Honolulu, Hawaii) was awarded the Graham Hall Award for outstanding service by a college sailing professional.
