SU Men Chase Princeton, take Georgetown in Season Opening Scrimmage.


Fourth-ranked Princeton took the measure of the Orange Men's Varsity Eight Saturday morning in a 2000 meter scrimmage at Princeton.

14th-ranked SU gave the Tigers a fight, finishing about a length-and-half behind, and well ahead of #15 Georgetown.

Coach Dave Reischman said he saw "some good things on the day," which also included some shorter pieces following the 2K.

SU's JV eight got after Princeton, just being edged out by 1.3 seconds and the freshman eight was within five seconds of the Tiger Cubs. (OK, you have to use that term at least once. It's a rule of journalism.)


The second frosh also beat Georgetown, but came in fourth in a five-boat race, behind Princeton's 3V heavies, 2nd frosh and 3V lightweights.
SU opens the season at home on April 14 with the Goes Trophy races.
