WORCESTER, Mass. – The Big Green kicked off their championship season at Eastern Sprints, Sunday, racing on Lake Quinsigamond in Worcester. Dartmouth lightweight rowing competed in five total races, earning one grand final podium finishes.

Â
In the Varsity Eight race, the Big Green finished in 5:50.26 in the first heat, securing their spot in the grad final. In that race, Dartmouth finished in 5:51.83, good for third place overall.
