| Varsity 8* With a strong stretch in the last 500 meters No. 4 Princeton defeated the Navy heavyweight crew varsity eight, Saturday morning along the Severn River. The Tigers covered the 2,000-meter course in 5:48.99, a little under eight seconds faster than the Midshipmen's 5:56.79. In the race, the first spring race jitters were quickly settled as both teams challenged for an early lead. A clear separation between the two teams occurred at around the 1300-meter mark. It was there where Princeton began to separate itself from Navy by taking about a boat length of a lead before they stretched it out for the margin of victory. Navy head coach Rick Clothier was upbeat about what he saw in the spring season opener from his team. "Today we had marketable improvement from last year's race to this year's. I think today's race gives us a sense of optimism about our season. " said Clothier. |

| * After all four crews went off the line together, save possibly for Temple a few seats off the pace, Princeton and Penn raced the entire course without more than 2 seats between them, with Princeton leading almost the entire way. Columbia trailed the pack slightly for some time, then dropped back while still holding off Temple. With approx. 400m to go, Penn charged and pulled even and perhaps slightly ahead, while Princeton waited slightly longer on their sprint, then pushed back through and ahead for the win. Princeton wins the Childs Cup, America's oldest continuously contested intercollegiate trophy in any sport. Temple was a guest in the regatta. |
