About us
The University of St. Thomas Sailing Team has a complicated past, before 2021 the team last existed in 2015.
​
In 2021 the team was re established by Rachel Bartel along with other invested and hopeful students.
Fall 2021 was the teams first competitive season back on the water in about a decade.
​
Since re-instatement as a club, we have traveled to four states and competed in a number of regattas;
we are currently ranked 73rd out of 158 teams in the conference.
