After two weeks, the Harvard varsity heavyweights are back in familiar territory—across the finish line first. They endured a shocking loss to Brown and a home defeat at the hands of No. 1 Princeton, but the heavyweights punished Navy and Penn in a lopsided road victory Saturday in Annapolis.A dominant performance in all five races—each Harvard entry won by open water—secured the Crimson’s seventh consecutive Adams Cup win on a day of poor racing weather and choppy water in Maryland.“The water was just horrendous...
While the clouds opened up in Boston, D.J. Hynes was raining birdies in New Jersey. The senior fired a three-under 69 in Sunday’s final round to tie for second place in the individual standings as the Harvard men’s golf team finished sixth at the Ivy League Championships at the Ballyowen Golf Course in Hamburg.

Bad weather on Saturday ended second-round play after just nine holes, while yesterday’s action was completely cancelled. In the end, the Crimson finished with a hard-won second-place finish behind Yale at the Great Gorge Country Club in McAfee, N.J. Harvard’s plus-61 performance was just five strokes behind the winning Bulldogs, and it helped wipe away the memories of a sixth-place Ivy finish last year. The success...
