by US Sailing Team 8 Jan 18:16 PST January 6-13, 2023

Day three of U.S. Olympic Team Trials - Sailing saw dramatic maneuvers on the 49er course, the third lead change in three days in the Men's Kite, and more tight racing in the Mixed 470. Both race courses saw 15-17 knots with a vibrant sea state similar to day one.

Stu McNay and Lara Dallman-Weiss extended their lead on the 470 fleet, winning both races of the day and putting four points between them and Carmen Cowles and Dave Hughes in 2nd place. Louisa Nordstrom and Trevor Bornarth remain in the fight just one point behind Cowles and Hughes, rounding out a highly competitive top three.

The top two 49er teams remain locked in a close battle for Team USA selection. Positions shuffled from day two, with Ian Barrows and Hans Henken now in the lead by one point over yesterday's leaders Andrew Mollerus and Ian MacDiarmid. Nevin Snow and Mac Agnese tumbled into a pitchpole on a downwind leg and thus tacked on a few points but remain in third and hungry to close their gap.

In the Men's Formula Kite fleet, Markus Edegran continued his consistent upward trend and took over the first place standing. This is the third lead change in three days for the kites, keeping fans on their toes as we move towards the halfway mark.

Noah Lyons closed his gap to Geronimo Nores and moved from 2nd to 1st, now leading Trials in the Men's iQFOiL fleet on a tiebreaker. In the Women's iQFOiL fleet, Dominique Stater kept her momentum with 10 of 11 first or second place finishes in every race of Trials so far.
