Sister, my sister, one more time.
Coupeville’s Sophie and Lucy Sandahl were in the same boat Saturday as the Seattle Pacific University crew team competed at the Great Northwest Athletic Conference Championships in Dexter, Oregon.
Lucy was the coxswain in the varsity 4+ boat, while her older sister rowed out of position #2.
In a day filled with incredibly close races, Central Oklahoma earned the team title, while SPU finished fourth.
The Falcons now wait to find out if they will head to Cherry Hill, New Jersey May 26-28 for the NCAA D-II Championships.
The field for that season-ending rumble will be announced during a selection show this coming Tuesday, May 16.
After moving to Whidbey Island from South Carolina, the Sandahl sisters sparkled in the classroom and in the arena.
Lucy played volleyball and competed in track and field before graduating from Coupeville High School, while Sophie transferred to Oak Harbor, where she was a member of the Wildcat swim team.
