SU Women Just Short in Last Try at Big East Title

Notre Dame's' Fighting Irish women's crews did it again on Lake Mercer today, sweeping the major Big East Championship Races. Syracuse's V8 was less than a length behind in the final.

Syracuse's second varsity eight was third, barely a half-second behind Louisville, but Notre Dame had open water on both.

The Orange V4+ was third behind the Irish and the Cardinals. Louisville got a win in the 2V4+ over ND, with Syracuse third. And the Orange 3V8 took second, open water behind the Irish.

The loss to Notre Dame deprives Coach Justin Moore's squad of the hoped-for automatic NCAA bid that goes with the Big East title. And for Syracuse, it is the last racing in the Big East as the Orange moves to the Atlantic Coast Conference next season. Eventually they'll see Notre Dame and Louisville in competition there.
