Following Brunnick and Meyer’s one-two finish, the Crimson took three of the top four spots in the 100-yard butterfly. Sophomore Nicholas Tan led the way, out-touching Esquen Bruno by one hundredth of a second. From then on, Harvard never looked back, taking four of the five top spots in the 200-yard individual medley, led by sophomore Niall Janney’s first-place finish.

"The input prices are set by someone else while the purchase prices are set by someone else," Tiwari says. "That's why the farmers are killing themselves." He wants the Indian government to better defend its own farmers...
...Crimson made strong showings at both events, particularly considering the top-notch talent present in Indiana. Paced by Chenowith’s eighth-place finish, the Harvard men claimed 23rd in a field of 34 teams, while the women relied on a one-two punch of junior Claire Richardson and sophomore Kailyn Kuzmuk to earn 12th out of 36. And on the East Coast, the Crimson rolled to 10th place finishes in both sides of the championship draw, despite fielding a younger squad...
