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 PRO, Wayne Bretsch, wisely cancelled racing for the day.
Quarterfinal Pairings:
1 Tulloch v. 8 Carapiet
2 Baylis v. 7 Hjorth
3 Tunnicliffe-Funk v. 6 Lovell
4 Fisher v. 5 Capozzi
