ICSA Sloop Match Race National Championships – 1st Place

This trophy is awarded to the winner of the North American Intercollegiate Sloop Championship sponsored by the ICSA.

The ICYRA/NA Sloop Championship was inaugurated in 1972 with the first championship held at the University of California, Irvine in Shields class sloops. To commemorate that event, the Pacific Coast I.Y.R.A. donated the Cornelius Shields Trophy. The trophy was named in honor of Mr. Shields of Larchmont, New York, one of the most well-known sailors of his time, and was one of the largest benefactors of collegiate sailing. He donated more than 80 of the Shields class sloops to colleges throughout the U.S. and was named to the collegiate Hall of Fame in its initial year.
