This crew is really slick.  The crew they were racing outweighed them by 28lbs per person.

Cornell loses by about a length to very good Dutch crew that set a Temple Cup record yesterday.  Strong headwind worked against the much lighter Cornell 8+.  Really great year!  BMA

Fire the coach.

Can someone translate the results?  It looks like we didn't do as well in the finals....

Lights did OK, but not up to standards set in 2014 and 2015.  Heavies took one bronze.  If there are more than seven boats in a category, there are preliminary heats in the morning.  The first two or three boats to finish (depending on the number of heats) race in the afternoon Grand Finals.  The others race in the Petit Finals or Third Finals - consolation races.
