...years. Fortunately for the Crimson, the second varsity crew picked up the slack, coming from behind to secure the Rowe Cup. Following the Rowe Cup win, the crew appeared to be back on the right path, coasting to an easy victory over Navy and Penn and then blazing past Northeastern on choppy waters for another victory the following week. Any forward progress, however, came to a crashing halt at the season-ending Intercollegiate Rowing Association National Championships (IRAs), where Harvard snapped yet another streak—its three-year run of national-title victories. At first it appeared...
...streak towards the end of the season. The streak included surprising losses to Boston University and Dartmouth, as well as defeats against rivals Princeton and Yale. The young squad, which consistently had only three seniors on its varsity eight boat, began the season right by beating Boston College and Northeastern to win the Rowlands Cup. It followed that win with an upset of Brown in Providence. “We had a great race against Brown,” senior Laura Martin said. “The first two races were a really good start to the season...
...very selective memory in the 2005 season, forgetting Harvard’s past successes. The Crimson was shut out in five of its 17 games and scored a mere 19 points on the season.

The Huskies were hardly a threat during the meet, as the Crimson beat them 244-74. The Jayhawks proved to be much stronger, but not strong enough. Harvard won, with a comfortable margin of 198-121. Sophomore Samantha Papadakis, also a Crimson editor, helped her team out by winning both the one- and three...
...season with impressive overall first-place team finishes for both the women and men at the Boston University Invitational. Although they fell to host Boston University (46-15), the Harvard women claimed seven of the top 20 finishers to achieve dual victories over Rhode Island (24-33) and Northeastern (22-39). The Crimson men also boasted a double victory, running circles around local rivals Northeastern (15-50) and Boston University (16-42) in decisive victories. Harvard monopolized the top ten, taking six of the spots, including a sweep of the top four. The Crimson then traveled to the Iona Meet...
