Markus Edegran '16 qualified for the 2024 Paris Olympics in the men's kite at the Last Chance Regatta in Hyères, France, April 20-27.

Edegran previously won the U.S. Olympic trials in the event, but the U.S. still had to qualify for an Olympic slot. Edegran earned his ticket to Paris 2024 by a 4th place finish at the Last Chance regatta.

In February, Leo Boucher '23 narrowly missed a trip to the 2024 Olympics when he finished second at the U.S. Olympic Team Trials for the Men’s Dinghy (ILCA 7) held in Miami, Florida.
