The second varsity raced prior to the varsity race, and the crew escaped the worst of the water that assailed the Harvard varsity in the final 1,000 meters.But while the Harvard second varsity avoided the turbulent water, it certainly had its finest competition to date in Northeastern’s second boat.The Crimson had yet to see contact with another boat after the 1,000-meter mark this season, but a formidable, undefeated second varsity from Northeastern posed the most direct threat to Harvard’s undefeated dual record...
