~ 1F Gold & 1V Silver ~
(May 19) The Y150 has won the Jope Cup for lightweight team supremacy for the second year in a row, by virtue of a silver medal in the 1V, a third-straight gold medal in the 1F, and an ‘at-seed’ performance from the 2V to finish fourth. This gave Yale a total of 33 points to Harvard’s 32 and Cornell’s 31.
Yes, we don’t have the best eight in the league – just the second-best eight – but Yale does have back-to-back Jope Cup titles to show for their efforts this campaign.
And the Kilpatrick Cup is back in the Trophy Case at the Gilder boathouse by virtue of the 1F’s 3.5 second win over Cornell. Penn – the only team to best the Elis this season – finished third.
