Yale wins 7 of 8 on windy Housatonic

April, 19

The Housatonic River saw four EARC lightweight crews race upon her waters today. The Yale lightweights took on a strong Housatonic headwind as well as a full race load, racing it up for the Dodge Cup against Penn and Columbia in the morning, and then coming back in the afternoon to take on Cornell. If the morning waters were somewhat calm, all pretense for a flat track was blown away by the constant south wind which once it started piling up the rollers never stopped. However, Yale was fortunate to win 7 of 8 races, including both varsity contests. Full details here. Full results for Penn & Columbia here and for Cornell here
