ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. – Boston College freshman Sophia Reineke was victorious on the weekend, finishing in the top spot in the Laser Performance Women's Singlehanded National Regatta, hosted by the University of South Florida.
The Fort Lauderdale, Fla., native, who qualified for the Nationals Regatta by means of a fifth place finish in the NEISA Women's Singlehanded Championship in September, emerged as the first-place finisher after a tight weekend of racing. With just one point and three points separating her and the second- and third-place finishers, respectively, Reineke claimed her first major singlehanded victory as an Eagle.
