The second varsity, composed primarily of sophomores from last year’s first freshman boat, downed a similarly sophomore-laden Brown second boat. Last year, Brown’s freshman eight took home Sprints gold to the Crimson’s bronze, though Harvard claimed silver at the IRAs in June.“The guys we were racing was mostly the freshman boat from last year,” said sophomore second varsity stroke George Kitovitz. “It was nice to beat...
