Green Wave Opens Fall Season at SEISA Singlehanded & Match Race Championships

NEW ORLEANS – Tulane sailing is prepared to begin a new campaign this weekend as it opens its 2024 fall schedule in Austin, Texas, for the SEISA Singlehanded and Match Race Championships. The championships will be hosted by the University of Texas for the second year in a row on Lake Travis on Saturday and Sunday, September 14-15.

Ava Anderson and Hamilton Barclay won the SEISA Women's and Open Singlehanded Championships last fall in Austin, Texas. Anderson also went on to win the ICSA Singlehanded National Championship in November on Lake Pontchartrain.

In the 2023 SEISA Match Race Championship, Barclay teamed with Zander King and Mia Hanes to win the title over Texas on the waters of Lake Travis.

This weekend the Green Wave will be competing to secure berths for three separate fall national championships. The winners of the SEISA Match Race, Open and Women's Singlehanded Championships will advance to the ICSA National Championship for each discipline in November.

Tulane will be represented by Kelly Holthus as the skipper with crews Ava Anderson, Martha Hughes, and Zander King in the match race championships on Saturday. In the singlehanded championships, Anderson and King will be back on the water on Sunday. Joining Anderson in the women's race will be Oakley Cunningham and Ashley Hoguet while Matheo Capasso will be on the water with King for the open singlehanded championship.

Racing is set to begin at 10 a.m. for the match race championship Saturday and for the open singlehanded championship Sunday. The women's singlehanded championship will follow the open championship at 2 p.m. Sunday.
