Since I threw this past Saturday, on this particular Sunday morning (Easter Sunday), I had my one-on-one lift, immediately followed by fourteen full poles—basically a sprint from one foul pole to the other along the outfield’s warning track...
...Holding a slight edge the entire race, Radcliffe’s heavyweight varsity eight looked poised to avenge last weekend’s loss to Princeton and get back in the winning direction. After a strong start, it was over the last 500 meters of the 2000-meter sprint that everything changed. The Big Green surged forward, taking the momentum away from the first-place Black and White. Dartmouth eventually overtook Radcliffe in this final stretch, edging the team for first place with a time of 6:26.8. The Black and White finished at 6:27.4, missing...
...third position in each distance was also a Crimson runner—sophomore Chidimma Dalu was .57 seconds behind de Groff’s winning time of 12.10 in the 100 meter race, while freshman Brittan Smith was under a second behind the pace of 25.19 in the longer sprint. The 4 by 400 meter relay team also gave the Crimson another gold in that short-distance event. Senior Laura Maludzinski and junior Leslie Irvine were two other Harvard victors, taking top spots in the 800 and 5000 meter runs, respectively.

...took half a decade, but the Harvard varsity heavyweights finally had a bad day. And after five years of perfection, the Crimson came up five tenths of a second short. Harvard dropped its season opener in a shocker at Brown on Saturday, losing by one seat in the furious sprint to the finish. It marked the first time since an April 2001 loss to Princeton that Harvard has surrendered a dual race. The win gave No. 7 Brown its first Stein Cup victory since 2000 and sent the No. 3 Crimson to an unfamiliar 0-1 dual record...
