...eyed African-American perspective gained from hard experience. Klein may not share their politics, but he still owes them respect.

The French national team playing in a brand...
...team to beat all season long and finished ahead of the Radcliffe and Georgetown crews when it counted. “They usually gain a lot of speed throughout the season—I wasn’t surprised that they got a lot faster between the Knecht Cup and Sprints,” Bates said. “We’ve seen them do that in past years as well.” Earlier on in the competition, the Black and White had outraced the Hoyas in their first heat, but a strong final race from Georgetown gave...
