An Easter weekend of pleasant weather saw Y150 open up against now-traditional rival Navy at neutral Lake Carnegie, NJ. Leading up to the varsity race for the Johnson Cup, Navy had won both freshman events, with Yale taking both the 2V and 3V races. After 1200 meters, both varsities were level, but a good push by the Middies enabled them to claim the Johnson Cup for the first time since 2007.
