The achievement marks the fifth consecutive year that Tulane has swept these conference titles. The team’s performance highlights their continued dominance in collegiate sailing competitions.

In the SEISA Women’s Team Race Championship, Tulane faced Texas A&M and finished with a perfect 6-0 record. Skippers Oakley Cunningham, Ava Anderson, and Gabriella Vassel competed alongside crews Hope Breslin, Cate Anderson, and Caitlin Briggs to secure the title for Tulane against the Aggies.

The following day on Lake Pontchartrain, Tulane competed in the SEISA Open Team Race Conference Championship against teams from Texas, Texas A&M, and Texas A&M – Galveston. Skippers Kelly Holthus, Christian Ebbin, and Hamilton Barclay sailed with crews Jonah Wozniak, Hope Breslin, and Taylor Bartell as they won three races against each opponent for a total of nine victories without a loss.
