Harvard, Yale Crews Engage in Time Trials

Early mornings at Red Top have been foggy but action filled over the weekend, as Harvard and Yale crews went into full-scale workouts on New London's Thames River. The two varsities are preparing for the annual four-mile race on June 22.

In early time trails, the Yale heavies beat their junior varsity counterparts over the upper three miles of the downstream course by more than a length in 16 minutes and 30 seconds, rowing a steady 28 throughout.

Harvard later went the full four miles over the same downstream course in 22 minutes and five seconds, topping its jayvees by one and three-quarter lengths.
