Orange Varsity Eight Fifth at IRA – Best Finish in Reischman Era
Syracuse’s varsity eight came into the season rated 15th
in the Coaches Poll in a year many thought would be rebuilding for Coach Dave
Reischman. Reischman does not believe in rebuilding and his charges late this
morning proved they belong among the best, finishing fifth in the Grand Final
of the IRA.
Top-seed Washington won it all, beating East Coast powers Brown
and Harvard by a length or so. Cal was fourth with SU next a length back and
Boston University in the sixth spot, 2/3 of a length farther back. SU improved
its best finish in this century by one slot. Two years ago the Orange finished
sixth in the Grand Final.
