Radcliffe Sailors Beat MIT, Tufts

The Radcliffe sailing team beat MIT and Tufts 6-0, in a three-boat round robin tournament Saturday.

Manning the three Crimson boats were co-captain Marie Rhoem as skipper and Cassie Levitt as crew, co-captain Sarah Herrick and Lora Fleming as co-skippers, and Pam Mack, as skipper and Ruth Bandler and Martha Kleinschmidt shared the crew duties.

"It was a very big psychological win to beat Tufts," co-captain Herrick said, "especially after the big buildup they've had as one of the top women's teams. They should be psyched out for the Nationals."

The regatta was the last race of the year for the 'Cliffe sailing squad before the National Championships in Chicago in June.
