Belvedere, CA (July 1) - The U.S. Youth Sailing Championship wrapped up this afternoon at San Francisco Yacht Club in Belvedere, Calif., and it didn't happen without a few last-minute upsets in the final races of the three-day event, sponsored by Nautica and LaserPerformance.

The two singlehanded fleets - the Laser and Laser Radial - perhaps provided for the most exciting final day of racing. In the Laser fleet, Cam Cullman (Rye, N.Y.) pulled off an upset victory against early leader Luke Lawrence (Jupiter, Fla.), who had an early start in the final race - his second of the regatta - and dropped to fourth place overall. For Cullman, who sailed in his last "Youth Champs" since he will have aged out next year, this was a wonderful day. "I feel amazing. This is the best feeling in the world!" he exclaimed.
