CHARLESTON, S.C. -- Old Dominion sailed to 13th place at the College of Charleston Coed Intersectional this weekend in their first event of the Spring 2008 season. Sophomore Kyle Rogachenko skippered the A division boat with freshman Kaitlyn Paulsen at crew to 11th place with seven top ten finishes.
Rogachenko and Paulsen were just three points behind Bowdoin and the Top Ten in A division. Still, the pair of Monarchs managed one finish in the top five boats and seven of 10 finishes among the top ten boats.
In B division, senior Michael Collins and freshman Ashley Pellerito sailed to a 13th place effort in B division with 119 total points.
