SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – Stanford wrapped up its Fall schedule on Tuesday, capturing its 12th consecutive Big Sail at St. Francis Yacht Club.
Junior Luke Muller and seniors Maeve White, Lauren Block, Quinn Vangelos and J.P. Cannistraro clinched the regatta for the Cardinal, claiming the final race to win the varsity division, 2-1, and the overall competition, 3-1.
Cal won the first point of the day, winning the masters division (40+ years old) by a score of 2-0 in the best-of-three format. Al Sargent ('91), Rolf Kaiser ('95), Dave Lyons ('90, '01) and Peter Philips ('81) represented the Cardinal in the masters division.
