US Women’s Match Racing Championship Day 3

Genevieve Tulloch continued her strong performance today and finished
out the second round robin of stage 2 on top.  Debbie Capozzi did
manage to get ahead of Tulloch after initially losing the start in one
match. Liz Baylis continued to hold on to second.  Anna
Tunnicliffe-Funk had a better last half of stage 2 and came back to
third.  Rounding out the gold fleet are Joann Fisher, Debbie Capozzi,
and Katy Lovell.

In the silver fleet, the Rochester junior girls won a couple of
matches and moved into fifth place from sixth.  Elizabeth Hjorth as
the leader of the silver fleet and Molly Carapiet in second move into
the quarterfinal knockout series starting tomorrow.

Day 3 started with no wind and fog and racing was postponed for three
hours on shore.  Finally, a light easterly of about 4 knots filled in
which was enough to get going.  The strong east to west current left
over from day one and was still hanging around.  The wind was quite
shifty while it settled in and there were several course changes.
After the end of stage 2, incoming rainstorms pulled out all the wind
and the Wayne Bretsch, the PRO, wisely cancelled racing for the day.
