(April 5 - Derby, CT) The Johnson Cup and the Joy Cup both return to Gilder Boathouse as the Yale lightweights start their 2015 season with two Cup wins. On a windy and fluid Housatonic race course yesterday, Yale was able to outlast a late charge by M.I.T. to take the 1V race in the first racing of the morning. Both Joy Cup crews were able to outpace Georgetown.
A week earlier a day trip to Lake Carnegie saw another windy race course and a great day of racing against the U.S. Naval Academy. Yale was able to win all three races against the Midshipmen to take home the Johnson Cup.
