(Oct 28) The conditions weren’t Sandy (or Snowy), they were actually quite good, and so were the results for the Y150 down on Lake Carnegie today. The varsity eights raced first, and Yale finished second among the ‘A’ boats, a close-but-no-mug 1.8 seconds behind Harvard. Yale ‘C’ beat Yale ‘B’ by 0.67 seconds to finish 11th and 12th.
In the novice event, Yale’s “B”s came in 25th.
But there was more racing to come, and the lightweight fours were both with near-mishaps (broken skeg) and near-victories, as Yale ‘A” was second overall, 6 seconds behind Harvard ‘B’. Yale ‘A’ and ‘B’ finished second and fourth, with two other fours finishing 13th and 18th.
Then the small boats threw down, and the conditions did not disappoint. Y150 had a 2x, three 2-s, and a lone 1x to finish off the day.
