Transpac division winners determined
Division winners were named Tuesday for the Transpacific Yacht Race, a 2,225-nautical-mile race that started off San Pedro, Calif., and ends off Diamond Head.
Doug Baker’s Dencho/Kernan 68 Peligroso won the Division I title, Ivan Batanov and Lawrence Andrews’ Reichel/Pugh 51 Zero Gravity claimed D-II and Roy Disney’s Andrews 68 Pyewacket took D-III.
Pyewacket had the best corrected time score. Corrected time is a handicap system that factors in the size of the yachts and design. The first yachts set sail June 27. Three teams have yet to complete the race as of Tuesday.
Chaminade women’s tennis makes grade
The Chaminade women’s tennis squad on Tuesday was named an Intercollegiate Tennis Association Division II All-Academic Team, while four student-athletes were honored as ITA Scholar-Athletes.

To be eligible, teams must have a minimum team grade-point average of 3.2 on a 4.0 scale for all rostered student-athletes for the 2022-23 academic term. It marks the sixth straight year Chaminade has earned the team award.
