Skipper Teddy Papenthien and his crew posted a runner-up finish at the U.S. Offshore Championship last weekend on the Chesapeake Bay.

Unfortunately, the Naval Academy Varsity Offshore Sailing Team entry wound up placing third in the prestigious regatta that is contested for the Lloyd Phoenix Trophy.

Skipper Brian Kennalley and his crew representing the Chicago Corinthian Yacht Club captured the Offshore Championship, one of several national events organized by US Sailing. Kennalley held a narrow one-point lead entering the final day of action and posted a pair of seconds in three buoy races on Sunday to capture the Lloyd Phoenix Trophy.
