CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – No. 9 lightweight rowing won the Biglin Bowl on Saturday, ending No. 8 Harvard's 14-year run as victor.
Â
This is just the fifth time in the 67-year history of the event that Dartmouth has been crowned the winner, the last being on April 19, 2008.
Â
The Big Green's novice crew started the day off bright and early with a first-place finish (7:15.4), edging the Crimson by just over two seconds.
Â
The 1V, coxed by
Peyton Gordon and stroked by
Ryan Tripp, won with a time of 6:30.7, leaving plenty of time between it and Harvard (6:36.4). Dartmouth pulled ahead early and, although the home team started to close the gap, the comeback fell short. MIT followed soon after with a 6:44.4.
Â
The Big Green's 2V and 3V both came in third place. The 2V finished with a time of 7:00.9, while the 3V completed the course in 8:14.5.
Â
Dartmouth will host Yale next Saturday, April 23, in the Durand Cup.
