Although a staggered start had Penn in front of Radcliffe at the gun, the Black and White tore past the Quakers in the first 100 meters of the 2000-meter course. The lights exploded from the start and maintained their boatlength for the remainder of the course.
Because of transportation problems, Radcliffe arrived late and did not have a chance to row the entire course before the race. In effect, the cosswain had to call the race "blind." As a result, Lee inadvertantly called the final sprint early.
The triumph against a strong eastern contender like Penn, however, shows the Radcliffe lights' great promise.
Radcliffe Coach K.C. Dietz believes her team has the potential to be an extraordinary crew.
There is, however, one team in the Black and White's league that poses a serious threat--Smith. At the Eastern Sprints last year, Smith came in a close second behind Radcliffe.
