More Sprints Heartbreak for SU Men

Topher Bordeau gets to celebrate for a few hours anyway and Orange fans get to stew once again. Bordeau's #12 seed Dartmouth blasted off the line this morning and battled #1 Brown all the way in the V8 heat edging Bruno by half a second. While the Orange came on strong at the end, it wasn't strong enough. Sixth-seeded SU rowed through #7 Northeastern and into both Brown and Dartmouth but the finish line came at 2,000 meters as it always does and SU was half a length short, finishing third in 5:39.02.

SU against Northeastern, Cornell, Navy, Yale and BU in the Petite Final. Cornell missed a spot in the Grand Final by .7 seconds winding up third behind Princeton. Harvard won the heat. Half the field in the petites is a rematch of the Goes Cup which Cornell won over SU by .2 seconds in miserable conditions at Annapolis.

JV in petites

Northeastern came from the twelve seed to knock off #6 Syracuse and #7 Yale for the second spot in the JV Grand Final in the first morning heat. Brown won it, holding off Northeastern at the end.

The Huskies had trailed early as SU and Yale battled for second but as Yale fell back, Northeastern move up and through the Orange, challenging top-seeded Brown near the finish.
