This year's team, marked by dedicated and experfeneed members, enjoyed a challenging and fulfilling season. Conn. participated in ap- proximately 15regattas this fall. In these individual regattas. an "A" team and a "B" team, both "teams" consist of a skipper, who is the actual sailor of the boat, and the crew, who handles the jib sail and is necessary to the weight distribution of the boat. In light of the still competition the team has sailed against, including such notable top teams as M.I.T., Tufts, Coast Guard Academy, Harvard, Smith, B.U., and U.R.I., Conn. has finished with tremendous results. On Sept. 30, the Bliss Trophy races were held.
