Before we get into the fall season let’s take a look back at what the Sailpack has been up to this summer! From traveling and competing to outdoor activities, our sailors had some pretty awesome experiences.

That’s a wrap on 2026 College Sailing Nationals and a great season for the Wolfpack!

Our women’s team finished 17th at semifinals, and coed finished 15th in the semifinals after heading into Day 2 in qualifying position, outperforming expectations and raising eyebrows. We let a few races get away from us, but the team battled hard, learned a ton, and represented NC State with pride on the biggest stage in college sailing.

Huge thanks to St. Pete, USF Sailing, Todd, and the RC, Adam and the judges, and everyone who helped make the championship such a great event. SAISA conditions and hospitality were on full display all week.

Most importantly, thank you to the parents, alumni, friends, and donors who supported us and made this trip possible. This season was a big step forward for the program, and we’re grateful for everyone who helped us get here.

Go Pack. 🐺⛵💪
