HAMPTON, Virginia -- The Hampton University sailing team announced its fall 2018 schedule on Thursday -- a slate that opens with a home regatta.
The Pirates will be at Strawberry Banks to open the fall 2018 campaign on Sept. 1-2 with the Edward Teach Memorial-which is one of the two regattas Hampton won this past season. From there, the Pirates will be on the road for seven straight races to close out the fall.
The ODU Riley Cup and Navy Laser Singlehanded Qualifier will be Sept. 8-9, for the first of two straight weekends at the U.S. Naval Academy. They will return to Annapolis for a second Navy Laser Singlehanded Qualifier on September 15-16 and go back the next weekend for the Middle Atlantic Intercollegiate Sailing Association (MAISA) Conference Laser Championship. The Pirates will participate in the Moody Trophy Sept. 29-30, hosted by the University of Rhode Island to close out September.
Hampton will compete in the Co-Ed Showcase Preliminary Round Oct. 6-7 hosted in the Boston, Massachusetts area. If they finish in the top nine in Boston, they will travel to Maryland on October 20-21 for the final round of the Co-Ed Showcase. The Pirates will wrap up the fall Oct. 27-28 with the MAISA Fall Co-Ed Conference Championship hosted by Navy.
