Antilles School’s sailing team came away with a third-place finish over the weekend in the Interscholastic Sailing Association’s Baker Team Race National Championships, held in San Diego’s Mission Bay. The Hurricanes — a three-time winner of the Toby Baker Trophy, in 2006, 2017 and 2021 — won nearly two-thirds of their races over the three-day regatta, but could not overcome the “home field advantage” enjoyed by the top two finishers.

Antilles School’s sailing team has put in a lot of work — and frequent flier miles — the last 12 months to get ready for what’s coming up over the next three weekends. But for some of the Hurricanes’ sailors, the training needed to get to this point goes back even further — and puts the team in shape to contend for two national championships. “We’re feeling good — we’re ready,” Antilles School senior Tanner Krygsveld said in an exclusive interview with The Daily News.
