CMax Rankings Offer One Last Topic for Speculation Before the Crews Get Down to Racing on the Cooper River

Without rowing a stroke in competition SU has managed to creep a tenth of a second closer to the Washington Huskies in this week’s CMax rankings and two-tenths of a second closer to Dartmouth. CMax now ranks the Orange V8 as 11.4 seconds back of top-ranked Washington and .8 behind seventh ranked Dartmouth, which has beaten SU twice this season.

After a romp over Penn in the Madeira Cup, Cornell stays at number six but now is rated 9.6 seconds behind Washington - .6 closer than a week ago. Harvard won its four-miler over Yale but only about a length and a half. The Crimson stays at number three but loses 1.1 seconds in the CMax – now 7.1 behind UW.

CMax comparison for Thursday’s Morning Heat

#3 Seed Harvard is tops, with #4 Princeton rated 1.4 seconds behind. Ten seed SU is rated 4.4 behind Harvard and nine-seed Columbia 7.1 behind. 15-seed BU is 9.1 behind and 16-seed Penn 14.6.

So much for hypothetical based on performance so far. Thursday morning they’ll race.
