Cornell Crew Defeated Yale

Cornell reasserted its rowing ability Saturday when it defeated the Yale and Princeton university and freshman eights on Lake Cayuga. Yale lagged throughout the entire first race, with never a chance of winning. The battle between Cornell and Princeton, however, was close after the first eighth of a mile. At the final quarter-mile mark, Princeton was actually in the lead, but a moment of ragged rowing on the part of Princeton and a spurt by the Ithacan crew put Cornell across the line a half-length in the lead.

Yale was second in the 1919 race, the Princeton freshmen coming in a slow third.
