A Pair o’ Mugs

October, 30

3-Mile Chase Report: 

The Yale lightweights had a pair of good performances at the 3-Mile Chase, with the pair of Joe Fallon ‘06 and Trevor Young ‘06 taking home some Chase mugs with their first-place finish in the men’s pair. The Yale lightweight eight was looking to improve on their fifth-place performance of 2004, and they did just that, moving up two slots to finish third, only 1.23 seconds out of second and 5.28 behind the winning Penn crew. In contrast to 2004, when Harvard blew the event open with a 24-second win over 5th place Yale, 2005 saw five crews within 5.81 seconds of the leader. For full results, click here. This concludes the fall racing season for the Yale varsity lightweights, though the freshman have one race remaining, the Belly of the Carnegie on November 13.
