By the 300-meter mark, Penn stood back several seats and Navy held strong, maintaining contact with the Crimson varsity. A speedy start and a strong settle kept the Midshipmen in contention throughout most of the first half of the race. “Navy fought really hard,” varsity seven-seat Andrew Boston said. “They were pushing really hard.
